If you have a problem with Epson Scan 2, check if you need to install another backend for your scanner. More information on the Arch Linux wiki:

Version 6.7.0.0 crashes lately for me. I changed locally the PKGBUILD file to version 6.7.42.0, updated SHAs and the new version does not crash for me.

Building doesn't work.

Solution: Remove qt5-singlecoreapplication dependency and add qt-solutions-git dependency.

Reference: https://github.com/qtproject/qt-solutions

I tested it, it works.

It is not downloading one of the dependencies. See error message below

@Balkonsky: I can confirm the findings in all points. I have also not found a solution.

Latest pkg + epsonsca2-non-free-plugin give communication error.. iscan , xsane works fine with the v600 scanner, however, to get the Transparent unit to work, I needed to use different device epkowa " the non-free device" however that doesn't show at all in epsonscan2, and I have no idea why

Nightwulf commented on 2022-06-26 22:26 (UTC)

Had the same communication error with my XP-3100. Installing this package helped: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/epsonscan2-non-free-plugin

I get the same communication error, which is odd because this was working perfectly ~1.5 months ago on the same version. Agreed, this seems like a i/o bug somewhere in a dependency.

Balkonsky commented on 2022-05-06 15:06 (UTC)

The package currently builds and installs correctly; but it does not work properly to full extent:

Executing epsonscan2 opens the application (see blue Epson icon in the taskbar), but with a failure window stating "Communication with the scanner not possible. Please make sure that the scanner is connected and turned on".

So far this I/O connection issue is Arch-related. The same Epsonscan2 works fine under Debian-based distros (after installing the Epson-provided drivers from the.deb and adding dependencies). This AUR package not working properly also affects other applications under Arch Linux like scanimage or xsane; both can detect the scanner but not connect with it. Maybe this behaviour can be confirmed by others or looked into. Thanks a lot!
