#VUESCAN NOT FINDING SCANNER SOFTWARE#

No further updates will be provided to the ScanSnap software you are using.

Or upgrading your ScanSnap to a recent model. We would suggest using your ScanSnap with the current version of macOS. The ScanSnap software you are using is not available on the macOS 10.15 Catalina. While Fujitsu had developed a new, 64-bit scanning application, it would not support many of the older, wildly popular ScanSnap models, including the S1300 I use: Some months ago, Fujitsu sent users of older ScanSnap models email informing them that their ScanSnap software would not be updated to 64-bit and would therefore not run under macOS 10.15 Catalina.

Finally, a developer was thinking like a customer instead of a scanner! The combination of a simple user interface, intelligent defaults, seamless integration with external apps, and automation of the entire workflow created a user experience that was hard to beat.įor example, I simply use the contextual menu from ScanSnap Manager’s Dock icon to choose Medical Documents, insert my insurance documentation, press the blue button on the ScanSnap S1300, and ScanSnap Manager will: ScanSnap’s simple and accessible profile menu But the real secret sauce of ScanSnap was the accompanying software that was centered around what you were trying to do rather than making you constantly fiddle with scanning parameters. These predominantly “sheet feeder” devices saved desk space and reduced the amount of paper swapping required. Interfaces like this one from Epson-and others even less friendly-were common.įujitsu attempted to address these challenges with its line of ScanSnap scanners. The luxury of being able to pursue a paperless office softened the burden of having to configure numerous technical parameters to make a single scan. Some 20 years ago, personal desktop scanning was available only to those with the time and money necessary to use large, flatbed devices connected via SCSI.

A traditional scanning software interface, with many technical parameters to configure For details, see “ Surprise! Fujitsu Releases 64-Bit ScanSnap Manager for Older Scanners” (27 July 2020), or just keep reading for a review of VueScan.

#VUESCAN NOT FINDING SCANNER PATCH#

They sent me a link to a patch (picndln_install_08262020.exe) that will reportedly solve the problem in the future (time will tell). Wait 30 seconds, then restart the service.

Right click or use the link at the left of the window to stop the service. They had me do the following actions, which got me going again but is a temporary fix:ġ) From the Windows 'Start' Icon, search for 'Services' and launch it.Ģ) Scroll down to 'Windows Image Acquisition (WIA)'. I called Canon Support again (they were quick to answer). Update: It worked for a few days, then I was back to the same old problem. The 'Readme' file included explains that it solves a Windows registry inconsistency that can keep the scanner from being recognized by Windows.

They instructed me to run the 'Restoration Tool for Windows Registry' found on the Drivers and Downloads page under the Utilities tab.
