: This report by ezeep details CVE-2025-42598, a critical flaw that allows attackers to execute malicious code during driver installation.
Fix: 'The Scanner Is in Use or Unavailable' (E1460-B305) Epson
Epson Scan version 2.x uses an older driver model that Microsoft deprecated after Windows 8. On Windows 10 and 11, the official installer may refuse to run, telling you to use Epson Scan 2 (which does not support your older scanner).
Official Epson drivers are digitally signed by Seiko Epson Corporation. Windows checks this signature before installation. Repacks often break or remove the signature, causing Windows to block installation or display security warnings. Forcing the installation can destabilize your OS.
For most users, this is the ultimate solution. You never risk a repack, and you get better results.
