Epson 1660 scanner not working in Lion

My 1660 scanner software says its not for intel macs but worked in 10.6. Any updates I have not found them. Where?

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3669 shows it's supported.
Download the driver here:

HP Scanner not working with Lion?

The print function is fine but the scanner won't work. I have tried removing the printer and reinstalling, but that didn't work. Any ideas?

That older printer apparently does NOT have a compatible Lion driver.
People who need to SCAN & PRINT without a compatible driver from their manufacturer can use Apple's very basic "PRINT & SCAN" utility in System Preferences:
Click the Apple menu ( ), and then click System Preferences .
Click Print & Scan ( ).
Click Scan , and then click Open Scanner .
Click Show Details . The details of the scan display, including options to modify scan settings such as output type.Figure 2: Example of the Show Details scanning screen
Change any settings as necessary, and then click Scan .
Hope this helps

Epson WP4525 scanner not working anymore with Mavericks

After updating to Mavericks the scanning option for my Epson WP-4525 has disappeared. looks like a driver issue ?
Anyone had similar issue ? Epson does not offer Mavericks update for the drivers ... at least not yet.
Got a solution or alternate scanning method ? (not with a flash drive thank you !)

Delete the old scanner driver, if it's still in your mac, and then try using Image Capture (it's in Applications).

Epson USB Scanner not working properly after 10.44 update

After 10.44 update, my Epson 3490 USB Photo scanner has stopped working properly. Is this just another one of those update issues that seem to be reported at the moment. Will someone at Aplle actually fix thisat some point?

I can't open Epson Scan - it appears in the dock and info bar for about 2 seconds, then quits. I can sometimes open SmartPanel by pushing the scan button on the unit, but then it says "Please install the supported TWAIN driver." Most of the time it appears in the dock and info ba) but doesn't open the window itself. Epson couldn't fix it. It works on a PC, so they said it's a Mac problem.

How can I go back to snow leopard my epson stylus Photo TX810FW does not work with Lion

My Epson Stylus Photo TX810FW printer does not work with Lion how do I go back to Snow Leopard?

Did you try removing the printer from the queue and then reinstalling it?
I attempted to print this morning for the first time after upgrading to Lion and discovered that while everything appeared normal on my Epson printer, it would never print.
I opened System Preference > Print & Scan and deleted the printer.
I then added the printer back and it now working again. Worth a shoot first I should think.
Much easier the a downgrade.

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my epson printer will not work. I get a communication error

I upgraded from leopard to lion and my Epson printer will not work. I get a error message comunication error. What can Ido to fix this I bought a new USB cord and it did no good.

I suddenly had the same thing happen. I've had my new iMac for 3 months and at first my Epson Artisan 50 worked okay then yesterday I started getting the same error message other people on this support site have gotten. I tried ALL the advice given (deleating the Epson files from the library folder, etc. reinstalling older software) and nothing worked. With the newest iMac (and operating system) you cannot pick and choose which version of Epson software you want. You must use the 10.8 version or it simply will not open when you've downloaded it. Finally I found the comment above by den.thed and tried the OS X Mountain Lion: Reset the printing system suggested. As much as I hated to lose all my printing presets that took a lot of expiermentation to set up, I was desperate. I tried it and it worked. Now I just have to consult my old computer and try to recreate all my printing set ups. So to others with Epson / Apple 10.8 issues this may help when everything else fails. Thanks den.thed for your advice.

How do I get Photoshop CS3 to recognize my Epson 1660 scanner?

I just got a new MacBook Pro, and I can't get my Epson 1660 scanner to show up under "Import." Photoshop is running in Rosetta and worked fine on my old MacBook. The scanner works via Image Capture but I want to use it through Photoshop. I tried re-installing the driver ("ICA scanner driver for Image Capture") off the Epson website but no luck.

If you "just got a new Mac", you are probably not running in Rosetta, as Rosetta was deprecated in Lion, Mac OS 10.7. That may be your problem, especilly if you migrated your Photoshop from an older computer.
The migration software copies your CS3 preferences, which include Rosetta, but there is no Rosetta in Lion. There's a file you need to delete, so keep an eye on this thread:

IBook won't recognize Epson 1660 scanner software

I can't get my iBook to recognize the scanner software to the Epson 1660 scanner. I saw this topic posted in February but no replies. Has anyone figured out why this problem exists? The driver is for OS 10.3x which is what I'm running on this iBook G4. Thanks, Cari Ferraro

make sure its plugged into the usb port and not into the airport express port.
had same problem with a brother printer. Only recognizes scanner software/printer utilities etc when the printer is plugged directly into the computer via usb.
can still print to printer when plugged into airport extreme via wireless but no access to scanner functions, fax, printer utilities etc.

HP Laserjet 3052 Scanner not working

So I upgraded to Leopard and everything seems fine except I cannot run the HP Scan software. The printer [art still works but I just cannot scan. I have tried reinstalling the software but it still not working. HP have no new software and drivers for it yet.
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks,

I can confirm what everybody else in this thread has said and add one detail. I bought an HP 3055 all-in-one yesterday and after installing the software, not only wouldn't it scan ("waiting for PC..." forever) but it also wouldn't print, AND another HP printer elsewhere on my network STOPPED working.
After an hour on the phone with HP support (10 minutes just to register my info), the guy confirmed that there is no 10.5 driver, didn't know when there would be one, and added the following amazing fact. Not only does the software on the CD that comes with the printer/scanner not work with 10.5, it actually BREAKS its printing from Leopard (and similarly the 10.4 or earlier downloadable drivers from hp.com). He claimed that printing from 10.5 works on the 3055 out of the box, but if you are so reckless as to install the software that actually came with the printer, it permanently stops working. (Plus, apparently, stops the printing of other HP devices.)
He went on to say the only fix was to re-install the Mac OS . However, I can report that after un-installing every piece of HP software on my machine (using their uninstallers, not just deleting), then restarting, the printer now works, and so does the other HP printer on the network. (Scanning still doesn't work.)
Btw, echoing other complaints on this thread, the reason I bought a new HP scanner was because my old one had stopped working ever since (I think) 10.4, and I finally gave up.

HP Printer F4180- Scanner not working

I've installed Snow Leopard, but now its now letting me scan. It will print documents, but when I click 'scan' it says 'scanner not found'. I thought this update was supposed to make using my printer easier!!! Can anyone tell me how to sort this out? I depend on this scanner to create work and this is frustrating to say the least!
Thanks,
T SCOTT

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install

HP Photosmart C6300 printer/scanner not working after Snow Leopard install
Reinstalling etc does not work - does anyone else have the same problem or a clue as to how to fix this?

Keith,
I got a C6280 and the scanner does not work anymore. I am for 6 days in contact with HP. The last printer driver install form the apple web site does not open the image of HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers.dmg because of an invalid checksum. The skipping of the validation gives and error in the install.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion.

Adobe Photoshop CS5 is not working with Lion. It is totally non responsive to a point where i cannot work. all other CS5 programs seem to be running well so far. any advice? if no, then how do i revert back to Snow leopard?

I had real problems with all Adobe apps - it said I needed to install a version of Jave Runtime, but kept saying that I wasn't connected to the internet to complete the action. This was not the case - I was connected to the internet.
I followed this link : http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1421 to install a version of Java and all Adobe apps fire up now. Haven't done much testing within the apps, but at least I'm further ahead than I was.
So thanks to the message boards for helping me out.
