How to upload Chipless Firmware to printer by WIC utility

Recommended Posts

New WIC Reset Utility has availability for some printer models to make them Chipless.

What does it mean?
Printer will show 100% ink level all time you use it.

You can get out ink cartridges or just IC Chips and printer will print as usual.

Once You change printers firmware to Chipless Firmware - the printer will not need to reset ink cartridges, printer will not need to use Auto Reset Chips or CISS Chips - no one type of ink cartridges chips will be required anymore!

 

Supported models:
WorkForce WF-7610/7611
WorkForce WF-7620/7621
WorkForce WF-7110/7111

7. Switch OFF the printer and switch ON again.

That's all. Now Your printer will not require any ink cartridges.
Thus You can use Ink cartridges, Refillable Cartridges, CISS or other cartridges You want.
Printer will never stop because of "ink finished" error or "not original inks" error.

@John_Admin One question, i have wf-7610, but the chipless fw version is "default", please define default?, Is the first firmware from epson?, because older firmware haves bugs on fax & scan features.

After chipless update can i update normally printer to latest?

 

19$ is expensive for an old firmware, better with arc chips.

 

Can I reuse the same firmware key on same machine 2 times?? for example upgrade to chipless > upgrade latest > reupgrade to chipless?

 

Thanks.
