Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have an Epson Stylus SX600FW all-in-one.
The Epson Scan software does not work with Mavericks, so I canb't use the scanner. I have updated to the latest versio of Epson Scan from the Epson web site. it still does not work. I expect Apple has to provide driver files. maybe it's something else. Does anyone know the annswer?
iMac (27-inch Mid 2011), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
For now, it appears we'll have to content ourselves with Image Capture. I went to the Drivers & Downloads section for my scanner like you did and it just says to use Software Update, which installed the updated drivers but not the scanning software. Hopefully an update from Epson is in the works, since they've always updated up to Mountain Lion.

I thought "YES!!!!" too, when I saw the new Epson drivers had been released but after installing the appropriate one, my 18 month old Epson Perfection 330V Photo never worked again. Like others, I had been using Image Capture but far preferred the Scanner software. Epson Support could care less. I could not get the scanner to work using the original scanner software running on another iMac not upgraded to Mavericks. I will keep the scanner for a few weeks to see if a fix is released but it looks like a relatively new scanner is now junk. Not happy with Apple or Epson.
The Epson Scanner Driver and Epson Scan Utility v. 3.9.2.3 is Mavericks compatible for the Perfection V330 Photo scanner. Remove your older Epson software and install the new driver and you should be able to scan using the Epson software.
I have the Perfection V300 Photo scanner and Epson released the Mavericks compatible version in November 2013, version 3.5.5.0. I uninstalled the old software, all of it, and installed the new version and I can scan using the Scan Utility with no problems under Mavericks. However, I was unimpressed with Mavericks and went back to Mountain Lion. I have Mavericks on an external drive to mess around with, and Mail is still a disaster. But at least Epson fixed the Epson Scan Utility software.
