- To Fix the error message that says The Scanner Is in Use or Unavailable, please wait E1460-B305 when you open Epson Scanner Software in your Windows 10 or Windows 11, please follow one of these methods:
Method 1:
Find the Epson scan icon located on the desktop - Right-click on it - Select “Properties” - On the ‘Epson scan Properties’ wizard, click on the “Compatibility tab” - See if “Run this program in compatibility mode for:” is checked. If it is checked uncheck the box - Then click “OK”
Method 2:
Click “Start” menu - open “Run” command box” - type services.msc - Once the Services window appears, scroll down and find “Windows Image Acquisition service (WIA)” - open it - under the General tab click “Stop” then set the startup type as “Automatic” if it is not so - click “Apply” then “Start” then “OK”.
Method 3:
Click “Start” menu - click “Device Manger” - expand “Imaging Devices” - right click on the scanner driver software and update the same as described in this video.

Method 2 worked for me! I've been agonizing over this problem for almost a year! Thank you very much for your very helpful video!
Glad it helped!
First method worked great. The box was un-checked. So I checked it, apply, ok, then un-checked it and applied, ok. Solved the problem. Thank you again.
Wow, nice to hear that 😊💞
OMG!!!! Thank you SOOOOOO much for making this video. I've had this issue intermittently for months. I cannot thank you enough. For what it's worth, #2 worked for me.
Glad it helped!

Thank you so much !!! I wasted a day to fix it but luckily I saw your video tutorial. It was fixed by method 2

Mera v 2nd method se hi sahi huaa
Method 2 worked for me, too. This error message happens quite frequently, it would be helpful to understand why.
Thanks Method 3 worked for me. Any idea why this happened, as it worked fine in the past during initial install of software and drivers
Great! Thank you!
Thank u bro , second method worked. But will it have any other effects ??
The 1st Method worked for me! Thank you.

Thank you for this kind of video..
This help me to fix my printer scanner..thank you a lot..
I'm now your subscriber..
Thanks and welcome
I have still same error? Any other suggestions? Thanks much!
Great Job - thanks so much! Before your second method worked for me I could only get the scanner to work by rebooting the computer each time with the scanner plugged in. The problem seems to be that the scanner is supplied with a USB 2 cable and Windows 11 wants a USB 3 one before it will work. And I can't find an similar micro USB 3 cable - even on AMAZON.
Great to hear!
Where do you buy the ink refills
Method 2 worked for me superb....thanks 🙂
Happy to help

Thank you soooooooo much for making this video. You are an angel. Sorted out my scanner. Bless you.
Happy to help you, @Helena 🌷🌷
I'm having this issue and judging from the comments I'm really hoping #2 will help me, however when I open the Windows Image Acquisition properties, the Service status says Starting and the Start, Stop, Pause and Resume buttons are all greyed out and not able to be pushed. I'm thinking this is the issue, but how do I fix it when it's stuck in "Starting" and I cant Stop it?
Method 2 worked for me as well. Great job, thanks for the video.
You are welcome 🙂🌷
Thanks. The 2nd method worked for me even though it was already set to automatic.
Wow, great! You are welcome 🌷
Thank you very much. Method 3/You saved my life.🥰🥰😍
You're welcome!
Method 2 worked! Thank you so much for sharing these tips!!
Thank you so much!!! The second fix helped a bit - it let me scan through the "start" button mentioned in the video (good for emergencies, but not convenient and it would only scan one page at a time which is terrible for multipage documents). But the third fix seems to have brought the scanner back to its original function. Hooray!
Method 2 also solved my problem, thank you.
Glad it helped 🙂
The second one helped I though I was out of luck my boi thanks 😭
Method #2 worked! Thank you so much!!
