Does anyone have an EPSON scanner? This does have to do with this forum

c0LLect0r · February 4, 2003 1:03AM

So we set it up about 3 days ago (it's an EPSON Perfection 1660 Photo scanner) and I have tried scanning * cards * to e-mails but the only choices are Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express 6 and I have neither. So is it possible to make AOL a choice? and if so, how?

Hi,

Why dont you scan the card to your desktop and then attach the file to your e-mail.
LMK if you need more help.

after scanning, go to save, , make sure you save it as a jpeg, and save it to a file, like My pics, or what ever. (you can create a folder in your "my documents". then save it to that folder. then go to your email, and somewhere on there, (depends on your email service), click attach file, then it will bring up your folders, click on the folder, click on the file(picture), and there ya go

Yeah. But I need to know how to have AOL as one of my choices cause I don't have the other two mail service things.

BigE187211 · February 4, 2003 9:39AM

dont save it like that, just save it as a jpeg, in a folder, then in a seperate window, pull up AOL, go to your email, then when composing a new email, somewhere on there, there will be an icon(maybe a paperclip), and you click it, then it will let you select the folder, and pic, and it will insert it for you

go to my documents, and create a new folder, and name it my pictures

c0LLect0r · February 4, 2003 10:02AM

c0LLect0r · February 4, 2003 10:37AM

LOL. I can't do that on this scanner. Maybe it's not like your super dee duper one, rodney

So, what i do is:

1. Click "Scan To E-Mail"
2. After it is done i click "Finish"
3. I get screwed up cause the only two choices on what e-mail thing to use are Outlook Express 6 and Microsoft Outlook and I have neither...I need to have AOL be one of the choices but I dunno how to make it one.

nismo68 · February 4, 2003 10:47AM

is there another option to scan to? instead of scan to email?...you should have another place to scan to..like in a folder? maybe its b/c its EPSON...LOL j/k

c0LLect0r · February 4, 2003 11:11AM

LOL. Yeah. I can also scan to the printer (like a copier machine), or to the web.

TEDCOLLECTSSHAQ · February 4, 2003 12:20PM

first option: throw away scanner

second option: go to epson.com and trouble shoot

first answer, NO and you are answering why I don't have one......

Sportycard · February 4, 2003 1:33PM

another thing you can do - scan it to Outlook Express 6 and then save the image on your desktop. I dont have an epson scanner but I am familiar with scanners, are you using the software that came with your scanner? If you have windows 95 or higher you can use windows imaging software. Click on the start menu, Programs Folder, Accesories Folder, Click on Imaging. In the program click on Scan New, located in the upper left corner. Hope this helps.

It doesn't matter what scanner you have. Just scan it-save it-attach it. simple.

BigE187211 · February 4, 2003 2:17PM

scan it to the web then, and save as a jpeg
