Epson perfection 2450 not scanning
PostPosted: Sat Sep 28, 2002 2:59 pm
I work for a dental office and we are currently using the Epson to scan all of our patient's hard copy information into the computer. I have made my way from A's to MA and I am now running into scanning problems.
Using the Host program Dexis ( a program that allows you to take digital x-rays) I am running Silverfast SE v5.5 0.06. The program that came with the epson scanner. The prescan mode works just fine, but when I actually go to scan in the reflective mode of the program (located under the general tab) the scanner scans about 1/2 inch of the image and then Pauses, continues for 1/2 inch and pauses again. It continues to do this for the entire document. In some cases the scanner will only scan to the middle of the selected area then stop completely. As the paper is being scanned a small box appears showing the scanned area. This box is behaving normally. When the scanner is finished it is suppose to transfer the scanned image directly into the host program. No image is being transferred however.
When I changed my mode from Reflective to Transparency I was working fine for about a day. Now I am having the same problem with the transparency mode.
I'm not sure whether this is a scanner problem or a problem with the Silverfast program. Could it be that I have Used up the temp drive for the epson scanner?
Help!!
