This from Epson:
If you see conflict error messages or printing is very slow, the problem may be
caused by temporary files in the EPSON Spool Manager temporary file directory. To
change the Spool Manager settings, you will first need to make a unique directory on
your hard drive, such as C:\SPOOL. Open the Spool Manager and make sure the EPSON
Stylus COLOR 600 is selected. Click on Options, select Default Spool Directory.
Change the directory to the new directory you created and click OK. Open the Queue,
Setup and make sure the spool directory changed to the new unique directory. Make
sure the box for "Use Print Manager for this port" is not checked, then click OK.
Close the Spool Manager, restart the computer and try printing again.
