Windows 8 driver for Perfection 636U

Is there a free driver that will work for this scanner? I am familiar with the Hammrick Vuescan driver.

As Epson does not have drivers for this Vista, have you tried the driver for Windows XP?
You can find them here
Hope this can help.

SOURCE: Epson Perfection 1200 Scanner Driver Needed for Windows 7

I posted this for another user but i'll post it here too,

I remember looking for hours for a driver for my Epson 1200 scanner back when I upgraded by dad to Vista 64 Bit, eventually I found one. Just today I upgraded him to Windows 7 64 bit and remembered I couldn't get it to work, luckily I was able to dig up the driver I used for Vista 64. Worked great in Windows 7.

I can't remember where I found it so I can't credit the person who made the driver unfortunately, however i've uploaded it to Rapidshare for you to download. Here is the link:

http://rapidshare.com/files/324940248/epsonScan_1.0_Per1200Win64eu.zip.html

Just open up the zip file and run the setup. :)

Hope this helps, Merry Christmas!

SOURCE: any chance of a driver for Epson Perfection 1200

RapidShare is dead.

I used this link today 7-24-2012 and it worked like a charm.

A huge THANK YOU to the person who did the work that Epson
should be doing.

Without the scanner turned on, I downloaded the file, unziped it
and extracted the files. I then ran the .exe
After that I turned on the scanner and let Win 7 install the device.
Simple as pie.

I have scanner of UMAX Astral 5600.But i have no driver for this.so i want to download driver of UMAX Astral 5600

I do not know of the Umax Astra 5600, but a lot of older scanners are supported by VueScan.
Look at http://www.hamrick.com/
for the VueScan program. Look at the VueScan supported scanner list:

Epson has no drivers for 3200 perfection photo scanner for win 7 pc.can you helpwith something besides vuescan?

Please go to this page and download the drivers for Vista. Well over 90% of Vista Drivers work perfectly for Windows 7, BUT! not 100%. I've solved many driver issues for local customers this way and I hope it works for you.

I'm trying to install my scanner on my PC, I have windows 7

From what i can see there is no driver for vista or windows 7 as that is an old scanner.
You can try a program called VueScan which basically supports a bunch of old scanners so they work with current versions of windows. They have a free trial (So you can confirm that it works). If you want to use for free I believe you can but it embeds images over your scans so most people dont like that. I think it is $40 to unlock it.
You can download VueScan here.... http://www.hamrick.com/
If this was a help please give me 4 thumbs up as I am trying to build up my rep on this site!

I need to know where to get a Vista driver for Epson Perfection 610 scanner

Hello !

Unfortunately, there is no free solution to your problem. No Vista driver has been written for your scanner.

But, there is a solution. Vuescan has a product here:
http://www.hamrick.com/ It does cost $39.95, but there is a free trial.

Hope this helps.

Driver for vista x64

Today I installed VueScan on my Win7 (7264) X64. After that the 1250 was still not recognized. Go to start and execute/run devmgmt.msc. You will get the hardware list with a yellow marker on your scanner driver. Double klick on that icon. Now you need to go to the second tab (driver program if I translate it) and second button (renew if I translate it) where you can install drivers for the device. Tell windows to search on your computer and point to the VueScan directory (directly on C: , not in programs). Now Windows 7 (7264) X64 will find the driver and your Epson 1250 is recognized. :-) Tested and working.

This same method worked for installing the AlexP drivers for my PS3 Eyetoy on windows 7 (7264). Tested and working also.
