Before scanning a document, remember to respect the rights of
copyright owners. Do not scan published text or images without
first checking their copyright status.
Caution: Do not place heavy objects on the document table glass
and do not press the glass with too much force.
1. Open the scanner cover.
Make sure the document mat is installed inside the cover. If
it is not installed, see “Replacing the Document Mat” on
page 9 for instructions.
2. Place your document or photo on the document table, face
down on the glass. Make sure the top of the document or
photo is against the upper right corner of the document
table.
3. If you are scanning multiple photos at once, position each
photo at least 0.8 inches (20 mm) apart from the others.
Note: If you are scanning large or thick documents, you can
remove the scanner cover. See “Placing Large or Thick
Documents” below for instructions.
4. Close the scanner cover gently so that your original does not
move.
Note: Always keep the document table clean. Do not leave photos on
the document table for an extended period of time as they may stick
to the glass.
Placing Large or Thick Documents
When you scan a large or thick document, you can remove the
scanner cover.

in the reverse order that you removed it.
Scanning Film and Slides
Removing the Document Mat

OPTION port.

off the scanner using its Ppower button.
2. Open the scanner cover and gently slide up the document
mat to remove it. Also make sure the transparency unit

the Document Mat” on page 4.

Replacing the Document Mat
Replace the document mat by sliding it into the notches in the
scanner cover. Make sure the white surface faces outwards.
Scanning and Restoring Photos
Using the Color Restoration feature in EPSON Scan, you can
transform old, faded, or badly exposed photos into ones with
true-to-life color. You can restore printed photos, negative film,
or slides automatically as you scan them.
You can use Color Restoration in EPSON Scan’s Full Auto,
Home, or Professional Mode. For detailed steps, see the
on-screen User’s Guide.
Removing Dust and Scratch Marks
From Film or Slides
Using the Dust Removal feature in EPSON Scan’s Full Auto
or Professional Mode, you can virtually “clean” the dust marks
from film or slides as you scan them.
Your scanner and its EPSON Scan software are equipped with
the Digital ICE™ and Digital ICE Lite™ features that remove
stubborn dust or scratch marks from color film or slides.
DIGITAL ICE will not harm image details while Dust Removal
may degrade the image. However, it takes longer to scan using
DIGITAL ICE.
For detailed steps on using these features, see the on-screen
User’s Guide.
Reading the Scanner Light
If an error occurs, the scanner stops operating and the scanner
light flashes red. This indicates one of the following problems:
❏The scanner is not connected to your computer properly or
your software is not fully installed. See the Start Here sheet
that came with your scanner for instructions on installing
the scanner software and connecting the scanner to your
computer.
❏The scanner and/or the transparency unit transportation
lock is locked. Slide the lock to the unlock position.
❏The scanner cover cable is not connected to the scanner’s
OPTION port. Connect the cable to the port.
After trying these solutions, turn off the scanner using its power
button, then turn it back on.
If the scanner light is still flashing:
❏The scanner may be malfunctioning.
❏The scanner lamp may need to be replaced.
❏The connected optional equipment may be malfunctioning.
Contact Epson. See the on-screen User’s Guide for details.
