Scanner Driver Issue On Mac

For some reason, my Neat scanner is not working properly, specifically the driver doesn't seem to be starting up properly. I probably need to reboot my computer and it will be good. But in the mean time...

Open /Library/Image Capture/Devices

Fireup the executible.

If the scanner stops working

  1. turn off scanner power
  2. unplug usb from scanner
  3. shut down neat
  4. kill driver if it's still running
  5. start up neat
  6. turn on scanner power
  7. plug in usb
  8. start up neat
  9. fire up driver again

These steps might be simplified to

  1. unplug usb
  2. kill driver
  3. plug in usb
  4. fire up driver again
