    Epson GT-6500 / W98 / 6433eu.zip Epson Twain drivers

    Believe problem may have followed clean install of operating system (though could have happened before … and not noticed … and so be completely unrelated)

    SYMPTOMS:

    Click Acquire:
    – Scanner activates and “ready” light goes on
    – then get error message “Scanner not ready. Check scanner is turned on” followed by “An error has occurred in Epson Twain”

    QUESTION:

    Whilst it is possible this could be a hardware problem – what are the likely twain errors please … most especially those affecting Window’s ability to detect hardware?

    – it appears that windows is not detecting the scanner properly

    INFORMATION:

    – clean uninstalled epson twain
    – installed latest version (6433eu.zip)
    – checked win.ini and set as C:WINDOWSTWAIN_32EPFBESTWN32.DS
    – checked autoexec.bat and set as C:WINDOWSTWAIN_32EPFB

    – GT-6500 activates on boot-up and “ready” light goes on
    – During installation, Epson Twain Setup opens on “No device selected”:
    … Manually set for Bid Parallel/378 – run test .. no response
    – However, does partially respond from “Epson Twain Setup” in Control Panel – i.e. activates on click open and “ready” light goes on etc (though still no response from run test)

    CMOS – ECP + EPP (as before)
    + tried new cables
    – tried new hardware wizard … scanner activated + “ready” light during detection process … but not detected by wizard!!

    It’s one of those niggling problems which hopefully might be a known problem – any help most welcome.

    Many thanks,
    eponymous1212
