Just in case you forgot (i hope not) how to do the scanning, see below: For example my is named "SCANPORT".Īre you using just wireless or you still have a USB cable attached? I hope you can use the explorer well so if you can open it and navigate to this directory windows\system32 see if you have a directory called "twain_32" inside there is a file named "wiatwain.ds" but the more important folder should be named "Epson". How you try to use the epson software directly? install.sh).Does the scanner appear in the windows 10 devices? (Basically, navigate to the directory you just untarred in a terminal then run. Untar the file you download and read the directions for how to install the software. Here’s what I did to fix the problem.įirst, go ahead and install the latest version of Epson’s software from their website (start here – or just here – lots of clicks to get to where you need to go).
It turns out, this is a bug in the latest version of the scanning software that ships with Linux, which confirmed that it wasn’t a problem with my scanner or with Epson’s software. This time, however, I quickly came across the answer online (see here). However, when my CPU died on my desktop computer forcing me to reformat it again about a month after I had previously tried, I figured it was time to try to solve this again.
After hours of trying various solutions, I gave up (that was a few months ago). I tried a lot of troubleshooting and came up empty. I tried it on a different computer with the same OS and that didn’t work. I tried installing older versions of the software (I’ve kept the downloads from Epson for years) but that didn’t work. That it stopped working was a serious disappointment as I have been using the same scanner for years and regularly need it for a variety of things. I bought this scanner specifically because it did work with Linux. As of Kubuntu 17.10, my Epson V33 Perfection scanner stopped working with Linux.
