for instructions on manually entering your wireless network name.
 
						

							50Problems and Solutions
■Make sure there aren’t any access restrictions (such as MAC address filtering) 
set on the wireless router. If access restrictions are set, register the product’s 
MAC address on the router. Print a Network Status Sheet (see page 50) to 
obtain the MAC address. Then see your router’s manual for instructions.

key or WPA passphrase correctly.
■Remove and reinsert the CD to reinstall your product software. (See page 31 
if you need detailed instructions.)

Your router might not be assigning IP addresses automatically using DHCP. 
If it isn’t, you will need to set the product’s IP address manually. Make sure it is set 
correctly for your network.
Cannot scan over the network
■Epson Scan is not available in Mac OS X 10.6; see page 25 for scanning 
instructions.
■If you cannot scan from the product’s control panel, make sure you restarted 
your computer after installing the product software. Make sure Epson Event 
Manager is not being blocked by your firewall or security software.
■If you are scanning a large document at high resolution, a communication 
error may occur. If the scan did not complete, lower the resolution.
■If network communication was interrupted while starting Epson Scan, exit 
Epson Scan, and restart it after a few seconds. If Epson Scan cannot restart, 
turn the product off and on, and then try again. Check the Timeout Setting 
in EPSON Scan Settings. For details, see the Epson Scan Help.
