Epson SX410 network printer - windows default scanner.
Hi, having some problems with Windows Default scanner interface. Epson SX410 networked printer (connected to a router and serves a number of PC's, all Win7 64bit).
We have some specific software used to scan customer information into the program, sadly its been designed to use Windows default scanner interface. The scanner does work through Epson Scan, and a few months ago I had successfully added so it functioned through "Scanners and Camera", accept since then the router has been swapped and for the life of me I can't figure out what, and how I'd managed to do it? The device is simply not detected by "Microsoft Scan Service". So the scanner works fine, accept not through the default windows 7 scanning software which is what I need. Any suggestions? Ive tried obviously re-adding the printer. Thanks, James |

Hum I had an idea it probably might not work James. The router mate is it a different brand or type or what it may be the problem - in it's software perhaps??
Have a look at this it might give you an option Add or remove a scanner |

It's now a BT Homehub v3 instead of a TP-Link ASDL. Thanks for the link, had already viewed. I'm totally stumped, will try re-doing the drivers again but have a feeling its going to make no difference. As mentioned, printer works fine, and the scanner does using the Epson Utility... The software hasn't been touched and again nothing can be defined as it just uses the default device from the MS scan service.

Well the reviews and specs look ok for the BT router perhaps the software run again maybe of use James.
If not a call to their support might be in order. Personally I like the TP-Link gear and shame it had to be replaced ![]() |

Yes, it should be fine! slightly irritating as i'm unsure if I did anything special last time to fix it. Will have one last shot, will triple check the drivers.
Thank you for your help. Yes TP link seems okay, but never overly impressed with the wifi -just a case of they've upgraded to BT Infinity so they've changed ISP. |

See if this procedure may work:
Quote:
Hi, log into the hub and note the ip address of the printer, on the W7 PC,
Start>Devices and Printers Right Click>Add printer Select Add Network Bluetooth option Search box pops, select the option The printer that I want isn't listed Next box ensure that Add a printer using a TCP/IP address or hostname is selected>Next Next box type in the ip address of the printer you've obtained from the Hub>Next After that follow the instructions, probably be install driver, if it is then click have disk and point to your cd drive. If all goes well it should install, you may the be able to login to the printer via its ip address using a browser, don't know. The best option to set this up is to connect the computer to the hub via ethernet rather than wireless, set up up the printer, then disconnect the ethernet and the computer will 'talk' to the printer wirelessly, Source: Re: Cant get wireless printer working with Home Hu... - BTCare Community Forums |
