I routinely disable the status monitor because it can cause problems with
networked printers and other printer status monitors.

In any event, you should get either a printing error or incorrect output
colors when the ink is very low.
Beyond that, the R200 is slow and of just average printing quality when
compared with the "latest and greatest".

In desperation, I ended up replacing a slow Brother 420CN all in one with an
Epson WF 600. The Epson 600 out of the box is much faster than my R300, and
produces good to very good quality results. In fact, the yellow/green
transition is seemingly more accurate on the WF 600. Epson sort of lied
about "built in double sided" printing, in that there is no duplexer on this
model.

I have this printer from some years and I'm happy with it. Now the problem
is with Win Vista. There is not a specific drive for this Printer under
Vista.
The printer print ok, no problem for this, the problem is the Printer
Monitor that can not see the inks status. So I can not know if a cartridge
is out of ink.
Tried to contact Espon for new driver but no chance.
Any Idea?
TIA
