This wikiHow will teach you how to download Epson scanner software on your computer. After you have the scanner or All-in-One connected to your computer, you can follow these steps to get the appropriate software including any drivers that are required.

Things You Should Know

  • You can download Epson ScanSmart drivers and utilities from https://epson.com/Support/wa00870.
  • Search for your scanner model to make sure you're downloading the correct software and drivers.
  • ScanSmart is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Steps

  1. 1
    Go to https://epson.com/Support/wa00870. You can use any web browser on the computer that's connected to the Epson scanner to download software.
  2. 2
    Click Click here. It's in the block of text under "Epson Scan Smart."

  3. 3
    Enter your product number or select your scanner type. If you click a scanner type, you'll need to next select the model of the scanner you have. When you click on the series number, a picture of that model will display on the next page, so if you have picked the wrong one, you can go back and try again.
    • Epson automatically detects your version of Windows, macOS, or Linux and displays it in the drop-down menu next to "Operating System." If the wrong operating system is selected, you can change it from the drop-down under the Downloads tab.
  4. 4
    Click Recommended For You (if it's not expanded). If this menu option is already expanded, you can skip this step.
  5. 5
    Click Download in "Recommended For You." This includes all the drivers and software you'll need to use the scanner.
    • If the product setup tool in "Recommended For You" is not available for your scanner, go to Drivers and download Epson Scan. For an All-in-One, download Epson Scan first, then download the Scanner Driver. Printers only need to download the Driver file.[1]
  6. 6
    Click Save. If you want to change the default file name and location, do that before you click Save.
  7. 7
    Open the downloaded file. Many browsers, like Chrome, display a notification that you can click to open a downloaded file. Otherwise, browse through your file manager and double-click the downloaded file.
  8. 8
    Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software. When you see the progress bar end, you'll be able to use your Epson device.
