Bill, What OCR do you intend to use with this scanner? It's a matter of having an OCR application like Vuescan or FineReader or some other OCR software which will recognise your scanner and then you can scan documents. Also, have you added the scanner using system preferences? Go to system preferences after you've plugged in your scanner and switched it on, choose printers and faxes and add your scanner to your system.
Hope this helps a little. > On 11 Feb 2017, at 17:55, Bill Gallik <[email protected]> wrote: > > I have an Epson XP 420 Series printer/scanner/copier and have no clue as how > to configure this device so I’ll be able to scan documents with it.
