Scanning With the a Start Button
You can press the a Start button to open EPSON Scan—or
if you’re running Windows, you can set the button to open
another application of your choice.
Note: You cannot assign a different application to the a Start button
on Macintosh systems.
Assigning an Application to the a Start
Button in Windows
Follow the steps in the section for your operating system to
assign an application to the a Start button.
Note: If you set the a Start button to open Photoshop Elements,
EPSON Scan launches automatically after Photoshop opens. If you
choose another program, wait for it to open, then start EPSON Scan
manually.
You can assign multiple applications to the a Start button, but you’ll
have to decide which program to launch after pressing it. To avoid
doing this, do not assign more than one application to the a Start
button.
