Double-clicking the background monitoring icon opens the
EPSON Status Monitor 2 window. Right-clicking this icon
opens a pop-up menu where you can choose whether the
Status Alert dialog box will appear in front of other windows
on the desktop. This pop-up menu also allows you to
deactivate the Status Monitor. When you deactivate the Status
Monitor, the background monitoring icon disappears from
the taskbar. To activate the Status Monitor again, see step 1
of “Turning on background monitoring” on page 5-21.
