Loading Originals

Follow the instructions here to load your originals into the scanner.

Note: The illustrations show the DS-575W II, but the steps are the same for the DS-530 II and DS-770 II.

Loading Originals in the Input Tray

Loading Plastic and Laminated Cards in the Input Tray

Loading Special Originals

Loading Originals in the Input Tray

You can load originals that meet the document specifications in the input tray.

Caution: Do not load photos, 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 with the optional flatbed scanner dock (DS-530 II/DS-770 II) to achieve the

best color reproduction of photos.

The steps below describe loading originals of the same size. To load originals of multiple sizes at once,

see the link at the end of these steps.

1. Open the input tray and pull up its extension.

2. Pull out the output tray and its extension, and open the stopper.

Note: If you are loading an original that is 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.

4. If you are loading a multi-page original, fan your stack of originals.

Note: If you are loading an original that is 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, load only one sheet at a

time.

5. Stack the originals with the printed side facing down and slide the stack so the leading edge is at an

angle as shown.

6. Load standard originals into the input tray printed side down and top edge first, and guide them in

until they meet resistance.

• If you are loading paper business cards, load up to 15 (DS-530 II/DS-575W II) or 30 (DS-770 II)

cards printed side down and long edge first into the input tray horizontally, and slide them in until

they meet resistance.

• If you are loading hole-punched originals, load them with the holes facing down or to the side as

shown. The holes must be within 1.2 inches (30 mm) of the edge of the originals.

7. Slide the edge guides against the edges of the original.

Note: If you are scanning originals that are 15.5 inches (393.8 mm) or longer, support the original as

it enters into and ejects from the scanner as shown.

8. 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.

9. If scanning thin or wrinkled paper causes paper jams, press the slow mode button once before

scanning to slow down the feeding speed; press it again to return to normal speed.

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, open the Epson Scan

2 Utility, click on the Scanner Setting tab, and select the desired level from the Paper Protection drop-

down list.

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.

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 with the optional flatbed scanner dock (DS-530 II/DS-770 II) to achieve the

best color reproduction of photos.

1. Open the input tray and pull up its extension.

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.

4. Load the originals in 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, press the slow mode button once before

scanning to slow down the feeding speed; press it again to return to normal speed.

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:

• Enable security on your wireless LAN

Enable the appropriate security on the wireless LAN you plan to use with your product. Network

security such as a network password can deter interception of traffic over the wireless LAN. Your

router may already have a default password enabled by your Internet service provider (ISP). See your

ISP and router documentation for instructions on how to change the default password and better

secure your network.

• 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

• 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

• The maximum length you can scan is reduced

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.

Select the resolution setting based on how you will use the scanned image:

• Email/view on a computer screen/post on the web: 96 to 200 dpi

• Print/fax/convert to editable text (OCR)/create searchable PDF: 200 to 300 dpi

• You will scan a long original.

Scan paper up to 240 inches (6096 mm) in length with a maximum resolution of 300 dpi or less.

Paper Protection Does Not Work Correctly

To reduce damage to the original, the Paper Protection feature stops 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.

• If misdetection occurs frequently, lower the Paper Protection detection level in the Epson Scan 2 Utility

(On-Medium is the default).

• Turn the Paper Protection feature off in the Epson Scan 2 Utility (Scanner Setting > Paper

Protection > Off).

Note: Set the Paper Protection feature to Off when scanning plastic cards and thick originals.

• When scanning multiple originals, make sure that the leading edges of the documents are aligned. If

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.

• 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.

• Make sure you did not press the slow mode button to slow down the scanning speed.

• 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 slow mode is turned off.

• 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 wireless network, factors such as interference, network traffic, or weak

signal strength may affect your scanning speed (DS-575W II).

• 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.

Cannot Scan Over a Network

If you have problems scanning over a network, try these solutions:

• Move the scanner and computer or smart device closer to the access point.

• If you cannot scan from the start button on the scanner, make sure you restarted your computer

after installing the scanning software. Also start Epson Scan 2 before scanning with the start button.

• Document Capture Pro (Windows) and Document Capture (Mac) do not support starting a scan from

the scanner button over a wireless network. Launch Epson Scan 2 before scanning from the scanner

button over a network.

• If you are scanning a large original at a high resolution, a network communication error may occur. Try

scanning again at a lower resolution.

• If network communication was interrupted while starting Epson Scan 2, exit Epson Scan 2, wait a few

seconds, and restart it. If Epson Scan 2 cannot restart, turn off your scanner, turn it back on, and try

starting Epson Scan 2 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.

• If the scanner and computer cannot communicate and are connected to the same network (subnet or

VLAN), check if your router uses the privacy separator and disable it, if necessary. Follow the

instructions in your router documentation to disable the privacy separator.

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.

Note: If you are using a 5 GHz wireless router, set the router to operate in dual band (2.4 GHz and

5 GHz) mode. If your router uses a single network name (SSID) for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band,

give each band its own network name (SSID) instead, such as Home Network 2.4 GHz and Home

Network 5 GHz. See your router documentation or contact your internet service provider for

instructions. Be sure to connect your scanner only to a 2.4 GHz network name (SSID).

• 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

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.

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,

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.

167

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, 3840 Kilroy Airport Way,

Long Beach, CA 90806 (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

changes by emailing us at [email protected] or writing us at the Epson Address above. Notice of

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.

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

168

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.

(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

169

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).

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.
