Scanning Is Slow; Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems - Epson Perfection V800 Photo User Manual

Scanning is Slow

If scanning becomes slow, try these solutions:
• Scan your original at a lower resolution, if possible.
• Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are scanning a high-
resolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements, such as a Hi-Speed USB port.
If necessary, increase your system's memory.
• If you are running virus protection or other security software, exclude the TWAIN.log files from
monitoring or set the TWAIN.log file as read only. See your virus protection or security software
instructions for details. The TWAIN.log file is saved in the following locations:
• Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\(user name)\Local Settings\Temp
• Windows (other versions): C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Local\Temp
• Deselect Show Texture in Epson Scan, if necessary.
• If you are scanning using DIGITAL ICE Technology, turn off the feature; scanning takes longer using
DIGITAL ICE Technology.
