Cheers Geobon, i have now tried both of these and both give me the same "EPSON Scan cannot be started" error message. Been thro the trouble shooter and connections are ok but when it starts talking about TWAINS it loses me :confused:

The printer itself is printing fine, just no scanner.

Any further help or ideas wouild be appreciated.

have you made sure the scanner isn't locked on the printer?

there should be a switch you can lock before transporting the printer if it is locked the scanner won't work.

Thanks Polarstar, if it is i cant find it, so the mystery continues.

Getting very frustrated here.
