Make sure there aren't any access restrictions (such as MAC address filtering)
set on the wireless router. If access restrictions are set, register the product's
MAC address on the router. Print a Network Status Sheet (see page 55) to
obtain the MAC address. Then see your router's manual for instructions.

If your wireless router doesn't broadcast its network name (SSID), see page 45
for instructions on manually entering your wireless network name.

If your wireless router has security enabled, make sure you entered the WEP
key or WPA passphrase correctly.

Remove and reinsert the CD to reinstall your product software. (See page 40

Make sure your firewall or security software is not set to block port 3690

Your router might not be assigning IP addresses automatically using DHCP.

is set correctly for your network.

Epson Scan is not available in Mac OS X 10.6; see page 32 for scanning
instructions.

If you cannot scan from the product's control panel, make sure you restarted
your computer after installing the product software. Make sure Epson Event
Manager is not being blocked by your firewall or security software.
