User's Guide Solving Problems Solving Problems Scanner Problems Scanner Lights Indicate an Error Check the following if the scanner lights indicate an error. ❏ Make sure the scanner is connected to your computer properly. ❏ Try to rescan the original. The scanner returns to normal when it receives correct commands. ❏ Make sure Epson Scan 2 is installed correctly. ❏ Make sure the transportation lock has been released. ❏ Turn off the scanner and turn it on again. If this does not solve the problem, the scanner may be malfunctioning, or the light source in the scanner unit may need to be replaced. Contact Epson.
