Epson | Scan 2 Silent Install
For organizations relying on Epson’s multi-function printers and scanners—particularly the WorkForce, EcoTank, and DS series—the driver package is essential. But can you deploy it quietly across 50 workstations without interrupting users? Absolutely.
EPSON_Scan_2_Setup.exe /a /s /v"TARGETDIR=\"C:\EpsonExtracted\"" If that fails, use a temporary folder trick: Run the installer normally, but do not click "Finish". Navigate to %TEMP% (type %temp% in File Explorer). Look for a folder named GUID or Epson Scan 2 . Inside, you will find the raw EpsonScan2.msi and .cab files. Copy these out before closing the installer. Once you have EpsonScan2.msi , use msiexec :
After extensive testing on multiple Epson packages ( EPSON Scan 2 v6.7.10.0 , v6.8, v6.9), we have identified reliable methods. For the majority of Epson Scan 2 installers downloaded directly from Epson’s support site, the following syntax works: Basic Silent Install Command Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run: epson scan 2 silent install
:: Run the silent install echo Installing Epson Scan 2... >> %LOG_PATH% %INSTALLER_PATH% /quiet /norestart /log %LOG_PATH%
EPSON_Scan_2_Setup.exe /quiet /norestart /log "C:\Temp\EpsonScan2_Install.log" After running, check the log for errors like return code 1603 (fatal error) or missing dependencies (e.g., .NET Framework). Sometimes the main .exe is a wrapper. For ultimate control (and for integration into MDT or SCCM), extract the internal .msi (Microsoft Installer) package. Step 1: Extract the MSI Many Epson Scan 2 installers respond to a standard extraction switch: EPSON_Scan_2_Setup
echo %DATE% %TIME% - Script completed >> %LOG_PATH% exit /b %errorLevel% For Mac administrators (Jamf, Mosyle), Epson Scan 2 comes as a .pkg file. Silent install is simpler:
:: Create log directory if missing if not exist "C:\Logs" mkdir "C:\Logs" Inside, you will find the raw EpsonScan2
:: Pre-check: Remove any conflicting Epson Scan (legacy) silently msiexec /x LegacyEpsonGUID /quiet /norestart >> %LOG_PATH% 2>&1
