[. . . ] Description of Issue: Certain tools on the Smart Panel user interface may not work properly. When launching and/or scanning from certain applets (programs) in Smart Panel, the program may experience unexpected behavior and/or generate an error message and fail. The following functions and applets are affected: · · · · · · · · · · On the Smart Panel main user interface, the Target Applet (Scan button assignment) window (lower left) may not function or display. On the Smart Panel main user interface, the Active Device (model selection) window (lower right) may not function or display. [. . . ] If experiencing unstable operation when scanning from a Perfection 1250 or 1260 scanner, restart your system. If the computer goes into "sleep mode" and this setting was enabled in the Apple Menu and you try to switch to a different mode after doing a preview scan in Photoshop, the Epson Scan driver will freeze. This does not happen if the computer goes into "sleep mode" after screen saver has started. To avoid lock-ups, change the scanning mode before the computer goes into "sleep mode" or re-launch Epson Scan after the computer wakes up and then change modes. After scanning with the Perfection 1250, if you then close Epson Scan and disconnect the USB cable, a scanner model selection dialog box may appear on the screen. Click "No" and the box closes. You can scan normally afterwards. · Action: The new driver is available on the Epson web site. Go to www. epson. com and click on Drivers & Downloads. On the Downloads page look for TWAIN Driver and Epson Scan Utility v. 1. 28A in the Macintosh section. Launch the EPSON Scan Installer and follow the on screen instructions. After the TWAIN has been installed, connect the USB or Firewire interface cable from the scanner to the computer. 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. Open Preferences, Under "Scanner Preferences" check the box for "Use TWAIN software whenever possible". Click Cancel in the Epson TWAIN Full-Auto mode window. Click "Manual Mode" to change to the Epson TWAIN Manual mode user interface window. 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. 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. In the Preferences settings for Image Capture, do NOT check the box for "Use TWAIN software whenever possible".

Description of issue: If you are using Copy from EPSON Smart Panel 2. 5/2. 6 or you installed the Copy utility 2. 00A patch for Smart Panel 2. 0A/1. 0. xA, you may find that the program produces copies with a light gray/blue/pink background.
