Xsane error with Workforce 645 printer
Hi everyone
Our old epson printer just threw a rod so we replace it with a new Epson
Workforce 645 printer. Nice printer. I am trying to get the scanner to
work with Xsane and keep getting the error " Failed to start
scanner:Error during device I/O" The printer is setup as a stand alone
network printer with a wifi connection. I am trying to scan multiple
documents (auto feeder) in color and using the PDF to PC setting. All my
linux boxes find the printer and seem to do standard print operations
correctly. I'm using Debian Squeeze on this particular system.
When setting the printer front panel for scanning the last step shows
"USB connection" on the readout. Could the wifi connection be the problem?
I am a little miffed that Epson has chosen to drop support for Windows
2000 from its driver for this model. Anyone know how to get around that.
Gary R.
