  • What do I do if I see an E-41 error message on a KODAK i2900 or i3000 Series Scanner?
    • Reseat the feed module. Sometimes a loose feed module causes this error. See User’s guide: “Replacing the feed module or feed module tires”

  • What should I do if I get an E73 error displayed on the OCP?
    • This error is usually caused by a corrupt or missing wia.dll file. Anti-virus software or an IT policy setting is likely removing the file after it is installed.

      Copy the WIA.dll file to:
      For i2900: C:\Windows\System32\Kodak\kds_i2900\
      For i3000: C:\Windows\System32\Kodak\kds_i3000\

      Call the regional Kodakalaris help desk if the issue persists.

  • What can I do if I am experiencing feeding issues?
    • Ensure the Gap release is closed for normal type documents. The gap release is located at the lower left side of the scanner and should be in the horizontal position for normal documents. For thicker documents, the gap release should be in the vertical position and the rear exit should be used. Please see the video on the web page.
