Problems with scanner on EPSON STYLUS CX3200? - Kaboom! Everything works perfectly on the printer (printing, photocopying etc) except for the scanner. Whenever the scanner button is pressed, the printer and PC don't respond, its like it doesn't even register. I researched on the web and it just kept saying something about "EPSON TWAIN" ? What is this and do you think it will make the scanner work ?

Best Answer: Most likely, the drivers aren't installed correctly or they've become corrupt. My best advice is to get the latest drivers from the Epson site for your operating system, then uninstall the current ones and do a clean install with the fresh files. Download them here: http://www.epson.com/cgi-bin/Store/support/supDetail.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&oid=14082&infoType=Downloads - MrEguy

Check your drivers they might need updating even if the machine is new who knows how long it was on the shelf - jaye412

There are some tools in XP and Vista that allow you to do some diagnostic testing with the scanner. Go to Control Panel and open up the Scanner and Cameras icon. If you do not see the scanner listed then you need to run the add new device wizard and it will take you through the setup process and allow you to install the correct drivers for this CX3200. Make sure you have the driver disk that came with the MFP. Otherwise you may have to download the drivers from the link below. - itguy992005
