I followed instructions. Screen is again showing Copy as a sellection
Got it
Firstly, something may physically make the scanner unit unable to move to the left, including a dirty cable and no power to the scanner. Or, you may have something physically obstruct the pathway of the scanner or something mechanical.
The next thing is the lamp might be burnt out. If you don't see a white light, that means the lamp burnt out, so it cannot scan the little patch, so the sensor will not be able to recognize you moving to the left.
Could you check it?

A corrupted Epson printer driver or an incorrectly installed Epson printer driver could be the root cause of slow printing on your printer and eventually lead to Epson error 100016. This Epson 100016 error will usually be overcome by reinstalling the Epson printer/scanner driver.
Have you already tried to reinstall the driver on the computer?

How do I do that? you need to know I am 80 years old and insecure about anything like this. I know there was a disc in the folder
Alright, do you still have this disc or it will be more comfortable for you to get the driver from the Internet?
Customer Reply
I still have the ET 2720 software disc Vol 1.0
Alright, do you use Windows OS on your computer?
Customer Reply
Havent a clue. What does Windows OS mean?
Windows is an operating system designed by Microsoft.
Alright, may I know if the printer is connected to the same computer you use for the chat with me?
