Solving Epson ScanSmart Problems Check the solutions in these sections if you have problems scanning using Epson ScanSmart. Cannot Scan Over a Network Cannot Send Scans to a Cloud Service Scanning Speed is Slow Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems

Cannot Scan Over a Network If you cannot scan over a network with Epson ScanSmart or start the Epson Scan 2 Utility, try these solutions: Make sure the computer and product are connected to the same network (or network segment/VLAN). Move the product and computer or smart device closer to the router or access point. If you are scanning a large original at a high resolution, a network communication error may occur. Try

scanning again at a lower resolution. Check the network connection setting in the Epson Scan 2 Utility. You may need to disable the firewall and any anti-virus software on your wireless router or access

point. If you see the message "Network product is not available: currently being used by user", there may be

a communication error between the product and computer. Restart the product. If the Firewall function is active, the product may not be discovered by the Epson Scan 2 Utility. Open

the Epson Scan 2 Utility, enter the IP address for your product, and click Add. If the product and computer cannot communicate and are connected to the same network (or network

segment/VLAN), the privacy separator on your router must be disabled. Follow the instructions in your router documentation to disable the privacy separator.

Ripple Patterns Appear in an Image You may see a ripple pattern (called a moir) in scanned images of printed documents.

To reduce this effect, select Settings > Scanner Settings > Scan Settings and try adjusting these settings and scanning again: On the Main Settings tab, try decreasing the Resolution setting. On the Advanced Settings tab, select the Descreening setting. Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems

Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems

Image is Distorted or Blurry If a scanned image appears distorted or blurry, try these solutions: Make sure your original is not wrinkled or warped. This may prevent the original from laying flat when

passing over the scanner sensors. Do not move your original or your scanner during scanning. Your product will not operate properly while tilted at an angle. Place your product on a flat, stable

surface that extends beyond its base in all directions. Select Settings > Scanner Settings > Scan Settings, adjust the following settings, and try scanning

again: On the Main Settings tab, try increasing the Resolution setting. On the Main Settings tab, make sure you select the correct Image Type for your original. If the Image Type is set to Black & White, adjust the Threshold setting on the Advanced Settings

Scanned Image Colors Do Not Match Original Colors Printed colors can never exactly match the colors on your computer monitor because printers and monitors use different color systems: monitors use RGB (red, green, and blue) and printers typically use CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black). Check the color matching and color management capabilities of your computer, display adapter, and the software you are using to see if they are affecting the palette of colors you see on your screen. To adjust the colors in your scanned image, select Settings > Scanner Settings > Scan Settings, adjust the following settings, and try scanning again: On the Main Settings tab, make sure you select the correct Image Type for your original. If the Image Type is set to Color or Grayscale, adjust the Contrast setting on the Advanced

Settings tab. If the Image Type is set to Black & White, adjust the Color Enhance setting on the Advanced

Settings tab. Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems
