My Epson FW scanner (2450) has to be ON when the computer boots. Otherwise I can't access it. I am also using 10.3.5, on a G4 dual. Since I leave the scanner off most of the time, this means I have to reboot when I need to scan something. No biggie, for me. If I did more scanning I'd just leave it on, I guess.
What's really odd is that on my OS9.1 FrankenMac (7600 w G3 upgrade) the opposite was true--if the scanner was on at startup, the computer would stall. So I'd have to shut off the scanner, then reboot. At the time I thought this was some weirdness about the FW card, but who knows. --Anna Previously, Kevin O'Grady [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >I have an Epson 1250 scanner and the majority of the time when I want >to use it the result of selecting it in the choice of scanner dialogue >box renders a long wait and then either nothing or that multi-coloured >ball will spin. > >I usually leave the scanner unplugged from wall AC and don't have the >USB plug in there either until I want to use it.
