Epson TWAIN v. 5.75A for Apple Macintosh OS X 10.2 and Image Capture
Subject:
This bulletin was created to inform you of an issue that can occur when using the Epson TWAIN
driver (v. 5.75A) in Apple's Image Capture utility on a Macintosh computer running OS X v.10.2
to v.10.2.4.
Reason:
After completing a scan with the Epson TWAIN driver, Image Capture may suddenly crash. The
problem appears to be isolated to Image Capture and does NOT occur in Adobe Photoshop 7,
Photoshop Elements 2.0 or other TWAIN-compliant applications.
Note: "Image Capture" and "Preview" are stand-alone application utilities built into OS X.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Image Capture. Open Preferences, Under "Scanner Preferences" check the box for
"Use TWAIN software whenever possible".
2. Quit Image Capture to save the setting.
3. Re-launch Image Capture.
4. Click Scan.
5. Click Cancel in the Epson TWAIN Full-Auto mode window.
6. Click "Manual Mode" to change to the Epson TWAIN Manual mode user interface window.
7. Without making a selection in the preview window, click the "Scan" button in the TWAIN
window, and wait for the scan to complete.
Note: After acquiring an image, Image Capture automatically opens the "Preview" application to
view the image.
8. Notice that Image Capture crashes after sending the resulting scanned image to the
"Preview" application.
Solution and Workarounds:
Choose from any of the solutions listed below.
1. In the Preferences settings for Image Capture, do NOT check the box for "Use TWAIN
software whenever possible".
2. If using the Epson TWAIN in Manual mode, drag a selection box around the area you
want to scan in the preview window before scanning.
3. Use Adobe Photoshop 7, Photoshop Elements 2.0 or other TWAIN-compliant
applications instead of Image Capture.
4. Upgrade your MAC OS X to 10.2.5 or higher.
