Solving Problems

Printing is too slow.
Make sure your system meets the requirements listed in 
Chapter 8. If you are printing a high-resolution image, you 
need more than the minimum requirements listed. You may 
also need to do the following:
Clear space on your hard drive or run a defragmentation 
utility.
Don’t run too many applications at the same time.
Increase your system’s memory (RAM).
For the fastest printing, try the following:
Choose 
Black
 ink if your document does not include any 
other color.
Set the Quality/Speed slider to 
Speed
.
If you upgraded from Windows 95 to Windows 98, you 
need to uninstall and reinstall your driver. See page 152 for 
instructions on uninstalling software.
If you’re using a parallel port, enable ECP/DMA mode. See 
your computer documentation for instructions.
Solving Problems with Paper Feeding
If your EPSON Stylus Scan doesn’t feed paper or feeds multiple 
pages, or if paper is jammed in it, remove and replace the stack 
of paper (and remove any jammed paper). Then press the 
 
E load/eject button. To prevent paper feeding problems, make 
sure of the following: 
Paper isn’t old, creased, damp, or too thin.
Fan the stack of paper and then even the edges before 
loading it.
The edge guide is against the stack of paper.
Paper isn’t loaded above the arrow on the edge guide.
Make sure your EPSON Stylus Scan is on a stable, level 
surface.
