"Scanner Reported an Error"...Okay, What Error How Do I Fix It?

My Mac specs are below.  I have a Canon MG3120 multifunction printer/scanner.  This is the first time I have used it to scan something since I upgraded to Mavericks.  I scan using the built-in Image Capture app.  After scanning several items, a box popped up saying:
"Scanner reported an error
An error occurred during scanning."
Well, that's not very helpful.  I've been given no indication of what this error might be.  As far as I can tell, there is nothing wrong with the files I created.  The scans were successful.  I checked the logs in Console, and nothing was generated that would point to this.  This never happened prior to Mavericks.  Can anyone tell me what might be happening and what I might do to stop it?
I'm going to install all of the latest up-to-date drivers and see if the issue recurs.  Other than that, I've got nothing.

Then as necessary:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable                                                       
- Try on another computer                                                       
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • EPSON Workforce 310 "scanner reported an error" when using document feeder

    I'm having trouble using my EPSON Workforce 310 printer/scanner with my new MacBook Pro (late 2012, 2.5 GHz i5, OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2).
    Using the flatbed I can scan without a problem. But when I try to use the document feeder, I get the following error right after I click Scan and before the scanner has done anything (at least I don't hear anything moving inside the EPSON):
         Scanner reported an error
         An error occured during scanning
    The EPSON's display doesn't show any error or special message.
    This is repeated whether I use Image Capture, Preview's Import from Scanner, or the printer's native app (PrinterProxy, the one that shows up in the doc whenever the printer is printing or scanning).
    I have no problem doing the scanning from my old iMac (2006, 2GHz Core Duo, Snow Leopard). After scanning to the MacBook fails I can walk over to the iMac and scan from there without problem and without resetting anything on the EPSON.
    The EPSON is connected the home network via ethernet to a Time Capsule. Both computers are connected to the network via WiFi.

    Syd,
    My wife's iMac with 10.6.6 stopped working with her Epson 2480 Photo scanner. Get the error message "SCANNER reported an error. An error has occurred during scanning" I am trying to use it from the Image Capture App or from the print/fax option in Settings which opens Image Capture. I ran the uninstall program and then reinstalled the ICA 13969 .dmg but get the same error. Not sure what else I can do.

  • Epson 1670 Perfection Photo Scanner gives "Scanner reported an error" in Image Capture

    I can not get my scanner to work.  It gives a generic "Scanner reported an error.  An error occurred during scanning" message anytime I try to scan something.   I have tried downloading the drivers from Epson and get the same result.  I am using a 2011 MacBook Pro 15" with Snow Leopard 10.6.7.  Any help would be appreciated.

    For anyone else with this problem (for those who WANT to use Image Capture from Preview)
    The EPSON ICA drive needs to be deleted.
    The ICA driver can be removed by following steps:
    1. Disconnect the scanner
    2. Open following path in Finder
    /Library/Image Capture/Devices/from there (called Epson Scanner.app)
    3. Delete this file.
    4. Plug in your scanner.
    5. Try to scan an image. (after this step it worked for me)
    Others have had to:
    3. Delete this file
    4. Reinstall the old ICA driver for the Epson scanner.
    5. Plug in your scanner.
    6. Try to scan an image.
    And still others have had to:
    3. Delete this file
    4. Reinstall the new ICA driver (listed above) for the Epson scanner.
    5. Plug in your scanner.
    6. Try to scan an image.
    Sorry all. It has been a long day of troubleshooting and trying different things out.
    Good luck. Drop me a line if you want to compare notes.

  • Scanner reported an error Canon Pixma MG7550

    I can print through my USB cable to my new Canon Pixma MG7550 on my McBook Air with OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 but when I try to scan I get a message saying
    Scanner reported an error,
    Cannot communicate with scanner for these reasons:
    - Scanner is turned off.
    - USB cable is disconnected.
    Please check and try again.
    I have re-downloaded the software but it still won't scan. Needless to say, it is definitely connected as it prints perfectly.
    Any help gratefully received.

    Changing body text is not simple. It's a desperate last resort. You need to buy the exact font. Acrobat will not let you edit in a font you don't own. Even then, it's undertain. Consider preparing an overlay in InDesign.

    Thank you nerak99. I figured based on the executable batch file that it takes two inputs and I know what to provide. The first input is the file name and second input is the week number(like 10,11,12 etc)
    I was told that this java program takes an edi file and cleans it up and generates an output file thats clean. Hope that helps. But could you point to what may be the problem with the code and how I can fix that. It appears that some variable needs to defined differently and as such am getting the out of bound exception. Can you please help me?
