I have an Epson R200 printer and when I installed Vista, Vista-compatible
drivers were automatically installed. You are correct that, in the
preferences dialog, you can click on 'Get Ink Levels' and they will pop right
up (they are grayed out until I click on Get Ink Levels.)

I like very much using the Epson Print CD app, and I was able to get it to
install (using the Compatibility Tab in Properties) and have used it.

It would be nice if we could get Vista-compatible versions of the Print
Monitor and Epson Print CD. Changing out the print cartridges is very awkward
just pushing the buttons on top and trying to remember what to do next (g). I
miss my little 'guide' that would show me pictures and tell me what to do
next.
