You're right, it doesn't - complain to Epson - they just couldn't be bothered to produce a Vista-compatible Status Monitor for such an old printer! That's the way it is I'm afraid. If you love your printer, go back to XP.

      Anyway, you could try the SSC utility -

      It doesn't claim to work under Vista, but various users say it does OK
