#Epson 3490 driver windows 10 drivers

Please advise if I didn't follow the instructions correctly. I did restart my computer at that point, but nothing has changed. In any case, I right clicked on each of these (one at a time) and clicked on 'Scan For Hardware Changes'. I do see 'Imaging Devices' and beyond that 'Epson Perfection 3490/3590'. I don't follow what is meant when it says 'select root device (top) icon from the list of devices' I am a newcomer to this forum and would appreciate any ideas anyone has.Īm I correct to assume that the one image you supplied is complete in itself? That is, I should do steps 1 thru 7 and step 8 doesn't apply? And yet I still get the 'Cannot properly communicate with the scanner' message ! After I left click on that box I get a message saying 'Your imaging device successfully completed the diagnostic test'. In Properties I see a box labeled Test Scanner. When I right click on that icon I can then select Properties. When I left click on My Computer I see an icon representing my scanner. When I plug the scanner cable into the USB port I get that 'ping' sound that usually means a device has connected with my computer. Several times since this problem appeared I have used Device Manager plus Windows Remove programs to remove Epson 3490 driver completely (and then I reinstalled the driver from the web site).

I am connected to my computer by the same USB port that I've always used with the scanner before and that port continues to work okay with my digital cameras, flash drivers and mp3 players. If using a SCSI connection, restart your computer.'

Make sure the scanner is on, properly connected, and properly set up to scan. 'Cannot properly communicate with the scanner. However, I am now getting this pop-up message : I've never had problems using my Epson Perfection 3490 scanner in the year and a half I've owned it.
