You must install your software before connecting the scanner

Install Photoshop
You should have a version of Photoshop installed on your computer before
installing the rest of your scanner software. That way, you can use EPSON
Smart Panel TM to automatically open Photoshop for scanning.
If you don't already have Adobe Photoshop or Photoshop Elements on your
computer, install Photoshop Elements from the CD-ROM included with your
scanner. To view the Photoshop user manuals in the English folder on your
CD-ROM, you'll need Adobe Acrobat ® Reader.
