My Expression1600 or 1680 works fine most of the time, but with some settings the scanner reports an error. What is wrong?

Nothing. There is a limitation of the scan area when you select a high resolution with 42/48 bits color depth. This should usually not cause any problems, it only effects hight resolution scanning, which is only necessary for slide or negative scanning. And then the images are relatively small. You should never need a full letter (or A4) sized scan in the highest possible resolution anyways. If you think you need to scan a photograph in 1600dpi, you should read an introduction into scanning (for example the excellent Scan Tips site).
