Quoting:
Other> Save settings: saves the settings and preview when Epson Scan is closed and is usually convenient.
The button for File Save Settings to the right of the Scan button determines the folder, file name, and format for the output files. The Location section of the dialog box specifies where the output files are written. I normally select the Other button and then Browse to identify the folder.
The output file names are limited to a prefix and number. The prefix can be set to identify the image. The added number is usually not needed and can be removed by renaming the file after it has been created.
The field for Image Format includes the usual TIFF and JPEG. Note that plain TIFF should normally be used for archival scanning, not the Multi-TIFF option.
The checkbox for "Show this dialog box before next scan" can be checked to give the opportunity to set the output file name for each scan. As noted above, the prefix part of the name can identify the image.
The checkbox for "Open image folder after scanning" can be checked to provide the opportunity to examine the final image and rename the output file.
I am trying to scan a picture and save it to my pictures folder but the a warning pops up saying, "epson jpeg plug-in (Title) Unable to write to file. (Warning) I can't figure it out it has worked in the past?Anai
I am also trying to scan a picture and save it to my pictures folder but a warning pops up saying, "epson jpeg plug-in. Unable to write
to file." I can't figure it out either. It has also worked in the past. I reinstalled the software; ran registry software; rebooted; ran the error-checking program on the hard drive, defragmented, etc. I ended up having to use it on another computer. I would love to know what the problem is. thanks. SR
Me too! I have a 4490 and am getting the "can't write to file" message. Been going out of my mind. Re-installed everything I could find. Checked for every change I might have made. Problem occurs with JPG and PDF but not TIF. Semi-solution:- The MS Wizard works! Hard to get really good quality but this is no big deal for me at this stage. I'm running XP SP2. The irony of this is that I never would have thought MS would work when any other supplier wouldn't AND Epson's contribution was "It's a Windows problem. Call Microsoft."
I have the same problem since I downloaded auto MS updates
