...I have successfully managed to set up my Epson SX110 to print via our BT Home Hub.

However, when I have tried using the scanner, I receive an error message stating thet "EPSON scan cannot be started. Please use the troubleshooting Assistant to solve the problem".

Unfortunately, I have looked through the assistant but cannot find a solution to the problem - has anyone else successfully set up their SX110 using BT Home Hub and got the scanner to work?

Cheers.

    AFAIK, you cannot use the scanner over the network.

    Thanks for confirming. I guess that given the little scanning we do, it won't hurt to change the printer cable around once in a blue moon!!
  • I came across a leaflet that was being handed out at my university about some website called 'gradparade' the other week.

    Anyway I keep hearing people talking about it. It sais 'their launch date' is tommorrow. Its some type of freesoftware for students....Looks pretty cool. Atleast it could save us some money.
