No image appears in preview or after scan using Epson Perfection 1670

I had exactly the same problem after moving my scanner to a new location, even though it was locked... it happened blank scanns, so I was about to go get my self a new scanner.
What I did was to get a cotton pad, put alot of alcohol on it and clean both sides of the connection usb cable in/out and then let it dry. Also I unistall all the epson scanner applications and reinstall with the new driver epson 12699.
It worked perfect, try it you have nothing to loose.

I keep getting an error that reads "unable to write to file". It was working fine and now I get that error about every 3rd scan.This is on an Epson Perfection 1670 scanner.

Just check if you have enough space where you are directing the scanning software to save the scanned images. You may be running short of disc space.

Lines through negative scans

Clean the glass surface with Iso propyl alcohol (Industrial grade is enough). Dont use any solvent. Just for immediate usage, you can use your aftershave and clean. Clen with a soft cloth.

Negative Scanning Problem Using Epson Scan Software

Make sure the rectangular slots at either end of the film frame are not obstructed or covered in any way. When I attempted to scan color negatives I had the same darkness problem in the scanned image. When I cleared those rectangular slots, everything was fine. I hope this helps.

1670 no image scan

Same Problem (WinXP System). I found leaving it off when not using it fixes my problems. (Its like the scanner light overheats or overloads the light receptors and it just sees white from then on, no matter what you do on the pc side of things). Other problems while stumbling into this "fix" include WIA drivers loaded which will stop scanner working properly, and finally scanner drivers seemingly working when USB cable in connected to another port other than what it was installed on but no image is shown (Not 100% sure if it was same problem as detailed at top)
