Solving Problems 43
■ If you’re using photo-editing
software like Adobe Photoshop or
Photoshop Elements, make sure
you select File > Import >
EPSON Expression 1680
as your
source. If you’re using the
SilverFast Plug-in with a program
like Photoshop, select File >
Import > SilverFast (Epson
Expr 1680)
.
■ Make sure the SCSI ID switch on
the back of the scanner is not set to
the asterisk (*), and that it’s set to a
number that doesn’t conflict with
any other SCSI devices. If you
reset the SCSI ID switch, turn the
scanner off and then on again.
Then restart your computer.
■ Make sure you have enough
memory to scan your image. If
you’re scanning a large image or
scanning at a high resolution,
close any unnecessary programs.
For Mac OS 8.6 to 9.x, try
increasing the memory of the host
application. If your computer still
doesn’t have enough memory to
process the image, try scanning at a
lower resolution, or select part of
the image to scan. If you still
cannot scan, you may need to
upgrade your RAM.
■ If you have a ZIP drive, it may be
interfering with your scanner.
Disconnect your ZIP drive, restart
your computer, then try scanning.
■ If you’re using the optional
automatic document feeder, run
EPSON Scan in Office Mode or
Professional Mode, and select ADF
as the Document Source. Also,
make sure the original document is
inserted face up.
When previewing a scan, you see a
message that the document could
not be located.
Make sure you’ve selected the correct
Document Type in EPSON Scan.
Software Problems
EPSON Scan doesn’t work properly.
■ Make sure the system
requirements are correct for your
software. See the requirements
beginning on page 57.
■ Check your computer’s memory.
If you’re running other software at
the same time, using RAM
resident programs, or have many
device drivers, the computer may
not have enough memory. (See
your software and computer
manuals.) If you’re scanning a
large image or scanning at a high
resolution, your computer may not
have enough memory to process
the image.
