Epson Perfection "Supported Twain Driver"

I moved my Epson Perfection 1670 over to my new Apple Mini Server, installed the Epson Software, and get this message when trying to scan:  "Please install the supported Twain driver."  I have looked everywhere on Epson's web site for the "Supported Twain Driver."  Also went through Apple's Software update and it did update the Epson software, but I still get the same message.  Any ideas are appreciated.

hi Jason,
it seems to be available from epson.com at this link...
2nd link from the top in the list.... if that dosn't help, post back... cheers

  • Epson Perfection 3490 Scan Driver question

    Hi everyone.
    I just purchased an iMac G5. I downloaded the Twain Utility from the Epson website, installed it on the iMac just fine. When I click on the icon, the application launches for a split second then quits. I spoke with Epson Tech Support (level 2) and went through several steps with them to try and fix the problem, but nothing worked. At this stage, it obvious there is some conflict with the OS.
    FWIW, I have a G5 Dual 2ghz and the same software works fine with it.
    Any ideas?
    Best...Stan
    Imac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6) 1.8ghz 512MB Ram

    Fixed my own problem. Found a discussion here at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5552009&#5552009 . Another person was having the same problem as I. Someone here suggested I try http://www.hamrick.com/vuescan/vuescan.htm#macosx . I downloaded and Vue Scan did the trick.

  • Epson Perfection 1250 stopped working after 2.65A driver upgrade

    i have the above scanner. it was working with a driver i downloaded from Epson a couple of years ago. I went to the epson site and saw a newer driver was there, this is 2.65a epson scan and TWAIN driver. i downloaded it and installed it and now the scan application quits after 5 seconds. no msg nothing. i have 10.2.8 which the doc says is supported by this driver. i repaired disk permissions still no luck. the apple profiler sees the scanner on the usb port, and it makes a noise when the system is booted (i guess to show it's there) so since there are no error msgs i don't have a clue what's wrong. anybody had this problem. i'm going to try to find the old driver again, but right now no scanner :(( why do i try to be up to date, if it ain't broke don't fix it.

    this was resolved by epson. apparently their driver upgrade did not automatically remove the previous version and you have to manually do that (they walked me throughte files that needed to be deleted). once i did that the new driver installed and worked fine.

  • I Upgraded to 10.8.5 but  the epson perfection scan 1670  is not supported. Where I can find a driver?

    I upgraded to the latest mountain Lion but my Epson perfection 1670 scan is no longer supported. I have also an HP scan but it's not like my beloved Epson! I went to the Epson site but the only thing they sad is that I have to look for an upgrade at the app store. The app store displays that there isn't any upgrade to do. The Epson support says I have to look for the ICA Image Capture Architecture of Apple...
    I have no idea what is that ICA, anyway anybody knows where I can find it and download it form make my scan work?
    Hope you can help.

    I have the same problem. The latest update broke my Epson Perfection 1670 scanner. Image Capture would say that it is warming up and eventually would give me an error. It happened immediately after the 10.8.5 update, so I know it was the driver.
    Here is how I got my scanner to work again:
    Go to this folder (shift-command-G from the FInder):
    /Library/Image Capture/Devices/
    Look for a file called "EPSON Scanner". The new one is version 5.6.0.  This one DOES NOT work.
    I went to another computer that I did not update and looked for the same file. The old version that still works is 5.3.12.
    I deleted the new version and copied the old one inside that folder.
    Presto. My scanner is working again.

  • Photoshop CS4 - TWAIN driver for my Epson Perfection 3200 scanner

    I have been attempting to find, download and install a version of the TWAIN driver for the Epson Perfection 3200 Photo scanner.  I need a version that will work with the Mac OSX 10.6.7 operatinging system and Adobe Photoshop CS4.  I have already exhausted all efforts to get an appropriate driver from Epson and they suggested I see if Adobe didn't have one that would install into the Import/Export folder of CS4.  Can you help?
    Thanks......Karol Rice Photography

    the search here is (was?) really bad but google gives you a back door:

    pay close attention to what Chris Cox writes
    Short answer:
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405072.html
    forget twain and scanning through Photoshop (keep working in Photoshop while you scan by scanning in the manufacturer's scanning app, or try VUESCAN free scanning software)
    note that Ps runs in 64 bit by default and many scanner plugins conflict because they are 32bit and buggy so if your scanner pluging is 32 bit, you need to run Ps in 32 bit if you want to the TWAIN door (again, not recommended, and it's been discussed here many times, probably why your post hit air)

  • EPSON Perfection Series Perfection V600. Is this scanner supported by os x10.9.1

    I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I CAN USE  MY SCANNER >EPSON Perfection- (Series Perfection V600)  WITH 0S X  10.9,1 MAVERICK....THE SPECIFICATIONS ONLYS SAYS  I MAY USE IT WITH OPERATION  SYSTEM 0S X 10.5.. PLEASE HELP...

    If Epson has a Mavericks compatible drive, then it will work. Apple doesn't make drivers for printers or scanners, so you have to rely on the mfgr. providing the driver to Apple. If they don't then you look to their support site for help.

  • Photoshop CS5-64bit support for Epson Perfection V600 Scanner

    Hello -
    In this document -- http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405072.html
    It says: "If the manufacturer of your scanner doesn't provide a 64-bit driver, open Photoshop CS5 in 32-bit mode to enable TWAIN scanning functionality with 32-bit drivers."
    Epson does provide a 64-bit driver for the V600 scanner. I installed in on my 64-bit version of Windows 7 and I can see it in the printers and scanners devices control panel. However, I don't see the scanned listed under File -> Import within CS5 64 bit.
    I was able to install the 32_bit TWAIN driver downloaded from the Epson website in the 32 bit CS5 install location. It works, but I rarely use the 32 bit version. The 64-bit version has worked great for me and my computer has 12 GB of RAM for heavy photoshopping.
    Is there a way to get support for the V600 within CS5 16bit?

    There is no 64 bit TWAIN program.  So far there are too many technical problems.  If you want to use TWAIN you have to use the 32 bit version.
    If you would rather use the 64 bit program do the operation with the scanner and then open the fle in PS.

  • Driver scanner epson perfection 3490?

    Ho appena aggiornato il mio lion osx 10.9 con maverich ed ora la mia stampante epson perfection non funziona più.
    Ho scaricato da epson l'ultimo driver ma una volta aperto mi dice non compatibile con questo sistema.
    prima dell'aggiornamento maverich lo scanner funzionava, ora non più.
    Dove posso trovare il nuovo driver per il mio scanner?
    Grazie
    Marina

    scusami...ma poi mi sono accorta che in epson dicevano che avrebbero aggiornato ma per il momento non era disponibile
    ho aspettato e dopo un po' ho trovato il driver
    l'ho installato e non mi è stato rifiutatao dal pc
    Insomma tutto bene, evidentemente era stato aggiornato
    Devo però confessarti che non son così brava a leggere quello che mi hai mandato e a capire come hai fatto
    Io con il driver ho fatto e risolto....come si fà con i driver che si montan da soli.
    Grazie joni
    alla prox
    ciao
    p.s. mi ero dimenticata di venire a autopostarmi la risposta....anche per aiutare gli altri

  • Driver for Epson Perfection 3170 Photo

    I have an Epson Perfection 3170 Photo scanner.  It is a fine scanner that has served me well for many years through many different operating systems, Windows as well as Mac OS X.
    The scanner software is no longer supported by Epson for OS X Lion.  The only way I can now san is by using the drivers that are built into the OS.  I can access the scanner either through System Preferences/Print & Scan, or use Image Capture.
    Unfortunately, all the scans are of an extremely poor quality.  I can no longer scan fibrant colors or stong blacks, the entire scan is now murky and all colors as well as the blacks and greys are faded. 
    Does anybody have the same experience?  Is there a solution to this?
    Thanks in advance.

    After upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion, I have the same problem now with my Perfection 3170. I have installed all of the available updates and new ICA scan update. Even tho' it installed a new Epson scan, it would not acknowledge my scanner. From an output point of view, VueScan is not much better but I object to having to pay for something that was free and working when I bought the scanner. However, there is a manual work around in Image Capture that will get you closer to the original scanned source. After the source has been overview scanned, alter the scan parameters. I change "IMAGE CORRECTION" from None to Manual. This brings up 4 individual measurements. All 4 markers or indicators should be in the centre position. Using the indicators like a ruler, make these changes: Brightness - 1.5 to the left of centre (-1.5), Tint: .5 left of centre (-.5), Temperature leave as is, and Saturation: .5 to the right of centre (+.5). Then Scan. The resultant scan is pretty close to OK. In photoshop, I reduce the Cyan and Magent by 10% and the Yellow by 5% and I find that my white is now white according to the info box (0C, 0M, 0Y, 0K). Until Epson can supply a lion compatible driver for this printer I will be using this workaround. Hope this helps you get decent scans again.

  • Epson Perfection 660 Driver

    Hello, any one know a solution to use Epson Perfection 660 on Mac OSX 10.6?
    There is no driver already installed.
    And no driver found on Epson's website.
    So probably if there is a similar driver that can be used, it will work.
    Any solution?

    Use TWAIN SANE - http://www.ellert.se/twain-sane/
    1. Basically, install all the snow leopard binaries from the web site above, except the SDKs.
    2. Download the XP driver of Epson Perfection 660, unzip it. You will find a firmware file under DATA called TAIL_061.BIN
    3. Point the driver to that firmware by going to System preference -> SANE. Configure the driver called "snapscan". The top of that config file should be like this (note that I put the firmware file in /usr/local/share/sane/snapscan/):-
    #------------------------------ General -----------------------------------
    # Change to the fully qualified filename of your firmware file, if
    # firmware upload is needed by the scanner
    firmware /usr/local/share/sane/snapscan/TAIL_061.BIN
    # If not automatically found you may manually specify a device name.
    # For USB scanners also specify bus=usb, e.g.
    # /dev/usb/scanner0 bus=usb
    # For SCSI scanners specify the generic device, e.g. /dev/sg0 on Linux.
    # /dev/sg0
    There you are. It works with my Macbook Pro 13" with OSX 10.6.4

  • I upgraded to Mavericks and can't find a driver to work with my EPSON Perfection 4990 scanner.  The Epson site says to update thru my mac but it there is nothing there.  Any suggestions?

    I upgraded to Mavericks and can't get my Epson Perfection 4990 scanner to work.  I had gotten it to work with a driver I downloaded from EPSON with Mountain Lion

    Hi...
    Epson is vorking on updating drivers and utilities for this scanner.
    From the epson site :
    "Description:
    An OS X 10.9 compatible Scanner Driver and EPSON Scan Utility for this model is not yet available but is coming soon. Please check back for availability."
    So, until then you can only use the basic scanning provided by Image Capture.
    Alternatively take a look on vuescan.

  • ICA Scanner Driver gives poor quality scans Epson Perfection 1660 Photo

    The controls on the ICA Scanner Driver for the Epson Perfection 1660 Photo scanner are very crude, and it's difficult if not impossible to get the quality I used to get with the previous Epson Scan driver.  Where there used to be Levels, Curves, and Zoom controls, now there are only crude Brightness and Contrast sliders.  Is there any way I can get more control over levels and curves, and zoom in on an image to fine tune the cropping, like I used to do with Epson Scan?  Or will I have to  buy a current model scanner?  The Epson Scan program for the Perfection 1660 scanner is no longer compatible with Mac OS X 10.7.

      I bought Vuescan 12 years ago, got the professional version. I have used it on Mac's and a PC or two. I have been through a dozen or more scanners over the years, upgraded OS's a hefty number of times as well.  And it still works like a champ.
      Best $40 I ever spent.  (what it cost back then for Pro...)
      You can go to his site, and try Vuescan for free before you buy.  Not a big software company, just a guy who loves scanners, and his son.  And he's been offering the software a long, long time, and updates the product constantly.

  • Epson Perfection 1660 Scanner Win7 64bit driver

    Anyone get this scanner or similar to work with Win 7 64bit? Seen some fake Trojan Horse software out there, and got the supposedly 32 bit win 7 download Epson recomends, but no luck. This was a fast scanner

    I have the Epson Perfection 3200 and when I went to Window 7 64 Bit it was either buying the Silverlight 64bit  (Upgrades are available free for 32 Bit) or getting Vuescan and bought Vuescan from hamrick.com It looks as if there site is down at the moment though.
    Oh and Vuescan works great.
