Scanning with OS X Using Image Capture

With OS X, you can scan with your product using an image-editing application such as Image Capture.

Note: With OS X, in addition to scanning with Image Capture, you can download and install Epson Scan scanning software. Epson Scan provides additional image adjustment and photo correction features for enhancing scanned images, and provides an interface for TWAIN-compliant OCR scanning software. To download Epson Scan, visit Epson's driver download site (U.S. downloads or Canadian downloads).

1.Open an image editing application, such as Image Capture.

2.Select your Epson product from the DEVICES or SHARED list, if necessary. (You may need to hover over the DEVICES or SHARED list, click Show, and select your product.)

3.If you see the Show Details button, click it.

If you are scanning an item on the scanner glass, your product begins a preview scan.
