If you have a serial device connected to one port and an
internal modem on the other, you can try COM3 or
COM4.
If you’re using a USB port, try selecting
USB
, then
remove the USB cable from your computer and
reconnect it.

fast for the configuration of your port. Try setting the
speed to

You may need to experiment to choose

Configuring Camera Events
You can use camera events when you are connecting your
camera to your computer with USB. You can automatically
launch an application, such as EPSON Auto Downloader,
when you connect the camera and press one of its buttons.
You can customize which buttons launch which programs in
the Camera Event Monitor on your Macintosh or the
Camera Events Control Panel in Windows 98 or
Windows 2000.
Your camera events are already configured with the following
default event settings:
◗ The shutter button launches EPSON Auto Downloader.
◗ The timer button opens the EPSON Auto
Downloader Settings window.
◗ The
flash button launches EPSON Photo!3.
◗ The image quality button starts the EPSON Photo!
Print2 Launcher.
◗ Connecting the camera doesn’t launch anything by
default, but can be set to launch an application.
