    Unable to get Win10 to recognize EPSON 4870 Photo Scanner

    I'll walk you though the steps I do to install my Perfection 1200. I have to do this periodically for some reason to reestablish the 'non-standard' Perfection 2400 driver.

    1. Right click on the scanner in Device Manager (as Admin) and select Update Driver. Then select the option to browse my computer for driver software.

    2. Then select Let me pick from a list of device drivers....

    3. Select Imaging Devices from the next list.

    4. Finally, select the correct Epson driver you have installed then click Next. If it isn't listed then something has gone wrong with the driver installation.

    5. Hopefully, the scanner should now work?

    Epson XP-345 printer works but not scanner

    Yeah, I see that's Epson-Ireland.

    Got it - printer is Wi-Fi. With that... As Oscar pointed to your printer drivers you need to install the

    • Driver
    • Epson Scan software
    • Epson Scan updater software
    You might also need to install the "Other Software" in the "Event Manager" software.

    Also, are you sure you're looking at the main PC (the PC where you installed the software for the printer)?

    Have you checked you printer's network settings?

    I'd also suggest you go over the owner's manual for said printer. It can be downloaded via Oscar's link under Manual & Documentation.

    Anyway if things are right you should see both scanner and printer under Device Manager as shown for my Epson XP-960 Wi-Fi printer...

    (There are not "hidden". And the printer is powered off)

    Good luck.
