Bidirectional communications

I have an Epson Stylus Photo 2200 & when I try using the status monitor to
get infomation back on the printer while it is printing I get an error
stating that Bidirectional communications must be enabled for this device.
In the printer setting bidirectional communication is checked. Is ther a
setting in Vista that must be turned on?

Try your bios first. You might want to change this setting on your computer
bios lpt port setting
