Cannot Scan Over a Network

If you cannot start Epson Scan for scanning over a network, try these solutions:
• If you cannot scan from your product control panel, make sure you restarted your computer after
installing the product software. Make sure the Event Manager program is not being blocked by your
firewall or security software.
Note: If you are using a 5 GHz wireless router, set the router to operate in dual band (2.4 GHz and
5 GHz) mode. If your router uses a single network name (SSID) for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band,
give each band its own network name (SSID) instead, such as Home Network 2.4 GHz and Home
Network 5 GHz. See your router documentation or contact your internet service provider for
instructions.
• If you are scanning a large original at a high resolution, a network communication error may occur. Try
scanning again at a lower resolution.
• If network communication was interrupted while starting Epson Scan, exit Epson Scan, wait a few
seconds, and restart it. If Epson Scan cannot restart, turn off your product, turn it back on, and try
restarting Epson Scan again.
• Check the connection setting and test the connection using Epson Scan Settings:
Windows 10: Click
Connection setting is set to Network, then click the Test button.
Windows 8.x: Navigate to the Apps screen and select EPSON Scan Settings. Make sure the
Connection setting is set to Network, then click the Test button.
