I do not appear to have any problem with the scan facility
which appears to work okay with excellent quality.
The problem I have is only with the copy mode.
The printer only prints half of the A4 page i.e. the right
handside of the page only prints.
If I open the "Copy utility " menu and then the "Custom copy"
menu and then the scan scan button, the marquee in that screen will only cover
half the page. I can decrease the size of the marquee but I cannot increase it.
The settings are A4 to A4
Epson V200 Copy Utility Problem with Incorrect Margin Output
I had the same problem forever and i just sat down today to fix it. I have a Konica Minolta PagePro 1350w for my printer. The resolution is set default at 600x1200 when in the Output Paper - Paper setting. Change the resolution for your printer if you can to 1200x 1200 in the output paper - paper setting in the copy utility software, and that should solve your problem with this half page copies. It might still cut off some margins at the very edge, but most of the time they're just plain paper margin. Hope this helps you out.

The printer can be used for scanning without a computer in sense of the scanner offering a copying facility - in B+W or Colour just by pressing the appropriate button on the printer. However, for scanning via the computer, if you are using a Photo programme (like say Adobe Photoshop or virtually all such programmes) normally you will find under the FILE menu (when programme is open) that you should see a menu item on the drop down menu when you click on FILE something like IMPORT - and the Epson printer will be seen listed in the menu that pops up. If you click on that, the Epson scanner programme will start. Normally there is a simple mode but you can change that to the PRO (or may be called Advanced mode) when you can do things like PREVIEW - which will then scan the document or photo in the scanner - and you can in the PRO mode change such as the resolution, what type of documents and so forth. When the Preview runs, you will see the document appear after the quick scan in the main RH panel. You can use a select tool to select the bit you want to scan if not the whole - most into on this will be in their manual - which you should have on the CD that came with the printer. Anyway - always worth ensuring you have the latest drivers, etc. so go to this link on the Epson website, click on Scanner Driver and Scanner Utility and download and install. Whilst on the Epson website, download the manual for that model as it will answer many queries for you as regards printing and scanning. All such info and software for downloading is under SUPPORT area - you select the region in the World where you live, then search for your printer model. The Epson website will normally auto-detect your computer's operating system to ensure you get the right version of Printer Drivers, other software and so forth. If you have no Photo Programme as yet - get Faststone Image Viewer (free) as an excellent programme. http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDownload.htm
Install another scanning software, if you have photoshop or any imaging software, you can use the scanner by going to the menu, then choose File, Import, TWAIN, Acquire and the scanner control will appear.
Or just go to My Computer and double click the scanner icon (in XP) to start the scanning assistant.

Assuming you're using the Epson Scan software, select Home or Professional mode and click Preview. When the preview image appears, draw a marquee around each of the three photos. (Note that as you draw each marquee the number beneath the little image of a marquee - the white square with the dotted line around it - increases.) After drawing your marquees, click the All button, then click Scan. The scanner should make three separate passes in succession, producing three separate images.
You have tired all the computery things seemingly but it is work trying some more Remove all software.- using the EpsonUninstall routine . and just to be sure go to Programs.Epson and mauallydelte all you can find. Make sure that when you re install- the computer is off line and the ant virus program is disabled. That should sort the problem Computer wise. When you go to operate the scanner- does it then go through the motions of Scanning but no light - is that it? If it is - there is nothing for it but to replace ther scanner To bad about the warranty card but if you have the sales recieipt And purchased less than a year ago - the the seller has a responsability [UK wise any way] But a pleading message toiEpson may surprise you too.
