Loading Multiple Sizes of Originals in the Input Tray
You can load originals of different sizes, paper types, and thicknesses at one time in the input tray. Just
make sure they meet the original document specifications.
Caution: Do not load photos, or valuable original documents or artwork, directly into the input tray. This
may wrinkle or damage the original. Load these originals using an optional carrier sheet.
Note: Photos scanned using a document scanner may not have the same color depth as the original.
Use a flatbed photo scanner to achieve the best color reproduction of photos.
1. Pull up the input tray extension.
42
2. Pull out the output tray and its extension, and open the stopper.
Note: If you are loading originals that are 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, do not pull out the input
or output tray extensions and do not open the stopper.
3. Slide the input tray edge guides all the way out.
43
4. Load the originals in the center of the input tray in descending order of paper size with the widest at
the back and the narrowest at the front. Slide them in until they meet resistance. Make sure the
printed sides are facedown and the top edges are slightly angled in the input tray.
5. Slide the edge guides against the edges of the widest original.
6. If necessary during scanning, adjust the position of the stopper on the output tray extension to fit the
ejected originals.
Note: If thicker paper does not eject properly or falls from the output tray, push in the output tray and
allow the originals to eject freely onto the surface below the scanner. If the scanned images are
affected by the originals ejecting below the scanner, try placing the scanner on the edge of a table
where the ejected originals can drop freely.
If scanning thin or wrinkled paper causes paper jams or double feeds, slow down the feeding speed by
selecting Settings > Scanner Settings > Slow > On on the LCD screen.
44
If a paper feed error is detected, the Paper Protection feature stops the scanning process automatically
to reduce damage to the original. To change the Paper Protection detection level, select Settings >
Scanner Settings > Paper Protection on the LCD screen and select the desired level.
Note: The Paper Protection feature does not prevent all documents from being damaged. Paper feed
errors may not be detected depending on the paper feeding conditions.
You can also scan originals of multiple sizes by loading them one by one using the Automatic Feeding
Mode setting in Epson Scan 2.

Network Security Recommendations
To help deter unauthorized access to your product over a network, you should protect your network
environment using appropriate security measures.
Security measures such as these can help deter threats such as loss of user data, use of telephone and
fax lines, and other intrusions:
• Connect your product only to a network protected by a firewall
Connecting your product directly to the Internet may leave it vulnerable to security threats. Instead,
connect it to a router or other network connection protected by a firewall. Your router may already
have a firewall set up by your Internet service provider; check with your ISP for confirmation. For best
results, set up and use a private IP address for your network connection.
• Change the default administrator password on your product
If your product has an option to set an administrator password, change the default administrator
password to deter access by unauthorized users to personal data stored on your product, such as IDs,
passwords, and contact lists.

Scan Resolution Guidelines
The resolution setting in your scanning software, measured in dpi (dots per inch), controls the amount of
detail captured in your scans. Increasing the resolution raises the amount of detail captured but comes
with the following disadvantages:
• Larger file sizes
123
• It takes longer to scan your originals, send/receive your scans by email or fax, and to print your scans
• The image may become too large to fit on your display or print on paper
If you plan to enlarge a scanned image so you can print it at a larger size, you may need to increase the
resolution from the default resolution set by the software. Follow these guidelines to determine the
resolution setting you need:
• You will scan the image at its original size but enlarge it later in an image-editing program.
Increase the resolution setting in your scanning software. Increase the resolution by the same amount
you will increase the image size to retain a high image quality. For example, if the resolution is 300 dpi
(dots per inch) and you will double the image size later, change the resolution setting to 600 dpi.
• You will scan the image at 100% or smaller size.

Paper Protection Does Not Work Correctly
To reduce damage to the original, the Paper Protection feature immediately stops scanning if a paper
feed error is detected. If the Paper Protection feature does not work correctly, try these solutions:
• If your scanned original is damaged, make sure that the Paper Protection feature is enabled. Increase
the detection level, if necessary.

the leading edges of the documents are not aligned, they may be mistakenly detected as a paper feed
error even if they are scanned correctly.
153
• Make sure you align the edge guides with the original to avoid scanning at an angle.
Parent topic: Solving Scanning Problems
Scanning is Slow
If scanning becomes slow, try these solutions:
• Scan your original at a lower resolution, if possible.
• Make sure your system meets the requirements for your operating system. If you are scanning a high-
resolution image, you may need more than the minimum requirements. If necessary, increase your
system's memory or reduce the resolution.
• The scanning speed may be reduced depending on the image adjustment features in Epson Scan 2.
• If scanning becomes slower after scanning continuously with the ADF for a long time, the scanner may
have automatically slowed down to protect the scanner mechanism from overheating or becoming
damaged. Let the scanner rest with the power on for 30 minutes, then try scanning again.
• Make sure the slow mode setting is turned off on the scanner control panel.
• If you are running virus protection or other security software, exclude the TWAIN.log files from
monitoring or set the TWAIN.log file as read only. See your virus protection or security software
instructions for details. The TWAIN.log file is saved in C:\Users\(user name)\AppData\Local\Temp.
Note: You may need to unhide system folders to view files in that location.
• If you are scanning over a network, factors such as interference, network traffic, or weak signal
strength may affect your scanning speed.
• Computers with USB 3.0 (SuperSpeed) or USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed) ports can scan faster than those with
USB 1.1 ports. If you are using a USB 3.0 or 2.0 port with the scanner, make sure it meets the system
requirements.

Epson ScanSmart instead, via a USB or wireless connection. For instructions on scanning with Epson
ScanSmart, see the help information in Epson ScanSmart.
• If you are scanning a large original at a high resolution, a network communication error may occur. Try
scanning again at a lower resolution.
155
• If network communication was interrupted while starting Epson Scan 2 or Epson ScanSmart, exit
Epson Scan 2 or Epson ScanSmart, wait a few seconds, and restart the program. If Epson Scan 2 or
Epson ScanSmart cannot restart, turn off your scanner, turn it back on, and try starting Epson Scan 2
or Epson ScanSmart again.
• Check the network connection setting in the Epson Scan 2 Utility.
• You may need to disable the firewall and any anti-virus software on your wireless router or access
point.
• If you see the message "Network product is not available: currently being used by user", there may be
a communication error between the scanner and computer. Restart the scanner.
• Epson Scan 2 does not support networks that use only IPv6. Use Epson Scan 2 on a network that
supports IPv4.
• If the Firewall function is active, the scanner may not be discovered by the Epson Scan 2 Utility. Open
the Epson Scan 2 Utility, enter the IP address for your scanner, and click Add.

Scanner Cannot Connect to a Wireless Router
If your scanner has trouble finding or connecting to a wireless router, try these solutions:
• If you are connecting the scanner via Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), make sure you activate WPS on
your scanner within 2 minutes of activating WPS discovery mode on the router by pressing the WPS
button or enabling the WPS setting in your router firmware.
• Make sure to place your scanner within contact range of your router. Avoid placing your scanner near
a microwave oven, 2.4 GHz cordless phone, or large metal object, such as a filing cabinet.
• Verify that your router is operating correctly by connecting to it from your computer or another device.
• You may need to temporarily disable your firewall and any anti-virus software on your wireless router.
Then try scanning again. You can also unblock your scanner driver or network address in your firewall
or anti-virus software.
• Check to see if access restrictions, such as MAC address filtering, are set on the router. If access
restrictions are set, add your scanner's MAC address to your router's address list. To obtain your
156
scanner's MAC address, check the label on the back or bottom of your scanner. Then follow the
instructions in your router documentation to add the address to the list.
• If your router does not broadcast its network name (SSID), follow the instructions that came with your
scanner to enter your wireless network name manually.
• If your router has security enabled, determine the kind of security it is using and any required
password or passphrase for connection. Then make sure to enter the exact WEP key or WPA
passphrase correctly.
• Check if your computer is restricting the available wireless channels. If so, verify that your wireless
access point is using one of the usable channels and change to a usable channel, if necessary.
• The scanner may not be able to communicate with a computer with both Ethernet and Wi-Fi adapters
enabled. Disable all network interfaces except for the interface connected to the scanner.
• Enable the DHCP function on the access point or router.
• Check that the scanner's IP address is set correctly.
• Make sure Epson ScanSmart is installed.
• If you cannot start scanning from a smart device, make sure the scanner and smart device are
connected correctly. Use the Epson Smart Panel to check the connection status for the smart device
and the scanner.

Binding Arbitration and Class Waiver
1. DISPUTES, BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND
CLASS ARBITRATIONS
1.1 Disputes. The terms of this Section 1 shall apply to all Disputes between you and Epson. The term
"Dispute" is meant to have the broadest meaning permissible under law and includes any dispute, claim,
controversy or action between you and Epson arising out of or relating to this Agreement, Epson
branded products (hardware and including any related software), or other transaction involving you and
Epson, whether in contract, warranty, misrepresentation, fraud, tort, intentional tort, statute, regulation,
ordinance, or any other legal or equitable basis. "DISPUTE" DOES NOT INCLUDE IP CLAIMS, or more
specifically, a claim or cause of action for (a) trademark infringement or dilution, (b) patent infringement,
(c) copyright infringement or misuse, or (d) trade secret misappropriation (an "IP Claim"). You and Epson
also agree, notwithstanding Section 1.6, that a court, not an arbitrator, may decide if a claim or cause of
action is for an IP Claim.
1.2 Binding Arbitration. You and Epson agree that all Disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration
according to this Agreement. ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JUDGE
OR JURY IN A COURT PROCEEDING AND YOUR GROUNDS FOR APPEAL ARE LIMITED.
Pursuant to this Agreement, binding arbitration shall be administered by JAMS, a nationally recognized
arbitration authority, pursuant to its code of procedures then in effect for consumer related disputes, but
excluding any rules that permit joinder or class actions in arbitration (for more detail on procedure, see
Section 1.6 below). You and Epson understand and agree that (a) the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C.
§1, et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 1, (b) this Agreement
memorializes a transaction in interstate commerce, and (c) this Section 1 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.
1.3 Pre-Arbitration Steps and Notice. Before submitting a claim for arbitration, you and Epson agree to
try, for sixty (60) days, to resolve any Dispute informally. If Epson and you do not reach an agreement to
resolve the Dispute within the sixty (60) days), you or Epson may commence an arbitration. Notice to
Epson must be addressed to: Epson America, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 3131 Katella Ave., Los
Alamitos, CA 90720 (the "Epson Address"). The Dispute Notice to you will be sent to the most recent
address Epson has in its records for you. For this reason, it is important to notify us if your address
the Dispute shall include the sender's name, address and contact information, the facts giving rise to the
Dispute, and the relief requested (the "Dispute Notice"). Following receipt of the Dispute Notice, Epson
and you agree to act in good faith to resolve the Dispute before commencing arbitration.
1.4 Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring an individual action in the small
claims court of your state or municipality if the action is within that court's jurisdiction and is pending only
in that court.
179
1.5 WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS. YOU AND EPSON AGREE THAT
EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL
CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR
REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FEDERAL OR STATE
CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS, CLASS-WIDE
ARBITRATIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY-GENERAL ACTIONS, AND ANY OTHER PROCEEDING
WHERE SOMEONE ACTS IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ARE NOT ALLOWED.
ACCORDINGLY, UNDER THE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES OUTLINED IN THIS SECTION, AN
ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT COMBINE OR CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTY'S CLAIMS
WITHOUT THE WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL AFFECTED PARTIES TO AN ARBITRATION
PROCEEDING.
1.6 Arbitration Procedure. If you or Epson commences arbitration, the arbitration shall be governed by
the rules of JAMS that are in effect when the arbitration is filed, excluding any rules that permit arbitration
on a class or representative basis (the "JAMS Rules"), available at http://www.jamsadr.com or by calling
1-800-352-5267, and under the rules set forth in this Agreement. All Disputes shall be resolved by a
single neutral arbitrator, and both parties shall have a reasonable opportunity to participate in the
selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. The arbitrator, and not
any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising
out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement,
including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. Notwithstanding this broad
delegation of authority to the arbitrator, a court may determine the limited question of whether a claim or
cause of action is for an IP Claim, which is excluded from the definition of "Disputes" in Section 1.1
above. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under
law or in equity. The arbitrator may award you the same damages as a court could, and may award
declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent
necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. In some instances, the costs of
arbitration can exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration
than in court. The arbitrator's award is binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by
telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence, or in Orange
County, California, at your option.
a) Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding. If either you or Epson decides to arbitrate a Dispute, both parties
agree to the following procedure:
(i) Write a Demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Dispute and the amount
of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at
http://www.jamsadr.com ("Demand for Arbitration").
(ii) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to: JAMS, 500 North
State College Blvd., Suite 600 Orange, CA 92868, U.S.A.
180
(iii) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party (same address as the Dispute
Notice), or as otherwise agreed by the parties.
b) Hearing Format. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made shall not be disclosed
to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Epson is entitled.
The discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute may be allowed during
the arbitration.
c) Arbitration Fees. Epson shall pay, or (if applicable) reimburse you for, all JAMS filings and arbitrator
fees for any arbitration commenced (by you or Epson) pursuant to provisions of this Agreement.
d) Award in Your Favor. For Disputes in which you or Epson seeks $75,000 or less in damages exclusive
of attorney's fees and costs, if the arbitrator's decision results in an award to you in an amount greater
than Epson's last written offer, if any, to settle the Dispute, Epson will: (i) pay you $1,000 or the amount
of the award, whichever is greater; (ii) pay you twice the amount of your reasonable attorney's fees, if
any; and (iii) reimburse you for any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney
reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing the Dispute in arbitration. Except as
agreed upon by you and Epson in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and
expenses to be paid by Epson pursuant to this Section 1.6d).
e) Attorney's Fees. Epson will not seek its attorney's fees and expenses for any arbitration commenced
involving a Dispute under this Agreement. Your right to attorney's fees and expenses under Section
1.6d) above does not limit your rights to attorney's fees and expenses under applicable law;
notwithstanding the foregoing, the arbitrator may not award duplicative awards of attorney's fees and
expenses.
1.7 Opt-out. You may elect to opt-out (exclude yourself) from the final, binding, individual
arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in this
Agreement by sending a written letter to the Epson Address within thirty (30) days of your assent
to this Agreement (including without limitation the purchase, download, installation of the
Software or other applicable use of Epson Hardware, products and services) that specifies (i)
your name, (ii) your mailing address, and (iii) your request to be excluded from the final, binding
individual arbitration procedure and waiver of class and representative proceedings specified in
this Section 1. In the event that you opt-out consistent with the procedure set forth above, all
other terms shall continue to apply, including the requirement to provide notice prior to litigation.
1.8 Amendments to Section 1. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you
and Epson agree that if Epson makes any future amendments to the dispute resolution procedure and
class action waiver provisions (other than a change to Epson's address) in this Agreement, Epson will
obtain your affirmative assent to the applicable amendment. If you do not affirmatively assent to the
applicable amendment, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between the parties in
accordance with the language of this Section 1 (or resolve disputes as provided for in Section 1.7, if you
timely elected to opt-out when you first assented to this Agreement).
181
1.9 Severability. If any provision in this Section 1 is found to be unenforceable, that provision shall be
severed with the remainder of this Agreement remaining in full force and effect. The foregoing shall not
apply to the prohibition against class or representative actions as provided in Section 1.5. This
means that if Section 1.5 is found to be unenforceable, the entire Section 1 (but only Section 1)
shall be null and void.
