Scanner Button Does Not Work as Expected
If the scanner button does not start the correct program or perform the correct action, try these solutions:
• Document Capture Pro (Windows) and Document Capture (Mac) do not support using the start
button to scan over a wireless connection (ES-300W/ES-300WR). Connect the scanner using a USB
cable or launch Epson Scan 2 before scanning from the button on your scanner.
Note: If you installed the Epson ScanSmart software, pressing the start button on your scanner
starts Epson ScanSmart instead, over a USB or wireless (ES-300W/ES-300WR) connection. For
instructions on scanning with Epson ScanSmart, see the help information in Epson ScanSmart or click
here to access the Epson ScanSmart User's Guide.
• Check the USB cable connection between the computer and scanner.
• In Windows, be sure that the scanner is listed under Imaging Devices in the Device Manager.
• Make sure Document Capture Pro (Windows) or Document Capture (Mac) is installed correctly. If
necessary, uninstall and reinstall it.
• Make sure you have assigned the correct job to the scanner button and change it, if necessary.
• Check the status of the lights and make sure the scanner is ready to scan.
• Make sure the connection mode switch is set correctly (ES-300W/ES-300WR).
• When using a wireless connection, start Epson Scan 2 on your computer before scanning from the
product (ES-300W/ES-300WR).
• Make sure Epson Scan 2 and other applications are installed correctly. If necessary, uninstall and
reinstall it.
