Solutions

Quick Diagnosis

If you see error c005, the scanner has dropped from the OS USB controller. This often happens if the cable is loose or if the computer's power-save settings have cut power to the USB port.

Step-by-step Solution

  1. Swap the USB cable for a certified USB 3.0 high-speed cable.
  2. Plug into a direct motherboard port on the PC, not a hub or front panel.
  3. Completely uninstall the PaperStream IP driver, restart the computer, and install the current version.
  4. Check device settings to disable 'USB Selective Suspend' in Windows power options.

Prevention and Maintenance

Always use high-quality, short cables to ensure maximum data throughput. Regularly check device manager to see if the device is identified correctly. Keep firmware up to date to ensure driver compatibility.

When to call a technician
