Subject: Scanning Application Force Quits on Mac OS 10.4

This bulletin was created to inform you of an error that may occur when opening a TWAIN-

compliant scanning application on a Macintosh computer running OS 10.4.

Description of Problem:

When launching a Twain-compliant scanning application after deleting your Epson Scan driver

with an Epson Scan uninstaller not compatible with your scanner model, the application will

force quit during start-up. For example, using a Perfection 4490 driver uninstaller to delete a

Perfection 3490 driver will cause your scanning application to suddenly close during start-up.

This issue affects the following TWAIN-compliant applications:

EPSON Creativity Suite When pressing the Scan button, the Scan

Assistant force quits

Copy Utility Force quits during start-up

Photo Impression Force quits during start-up

Photoshop Elements Force quits during start-up

Photoshop Force quits during start-up

Photoshop CS2 Force quits during start-up

This issue can also occur under the following conditions:

1) Dragging the Epson Scan folder (located in the Applications folder) to the Trash can

2) Upgrading your scanner and using the Epson Scan driver from the new scanner to

delete the driver from the older scanner, and then installing the new driver

Operating Systems Effected:

Mac OS 10.4 to 10.4.9

Affected Epson Scan Driver Versions:

2.70A or later

Correct Procedure for Deleting Epson Scan Driver:

!Use the driver specifically written for your scanner model to uninstall the Epson Scan

driver.

!If you have more than one Epson scanner model on your computer, use the driver

specifically written for each scanner to uninstall its respective device driver.

!If upgrading from a Power PC-based Epson Scan driver to a Universal Binary driver,

first delete the Power PC driver using only the Power PC driver for your scanner model.

Then install the Universal Binary driver.

If the above procedure does not resolve the problem, then manually verify that the Epson

Scan files and folders, listed below, have been deleted.

!EPSON Scan (in Applications Folder)

!EPSON*********.ds (****** = scanner model)---located in the Library / Image Capture /

TWAIN Data Sources folder
