John_Admin 373 Report post Posted January 11, 2019 When Your printer gives Recovery Mode message - the solution is to upload Recovery Firmware. It can be easily done by WIC Utility - it is Free and Secure for printer. Watch step-by-step video tutorial how to flash Recovery Firmware to Epson WF-3720 printer. Other models have the same process. Here You can ask questions regarding this procedure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MOHPS8 0 Report post Posted January 11, 2019 I got a few XP-342 printers stucked in recovery mode when i tried to make them chipless so when I do this recovery it remains chipless or become oem firmware? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John_Admin 373 Report post Posted January 12, 2019 After flashing to printer Recovery Firmware printer will work with OEM ink cartridges only. You can upload then chipless firmware if You want. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fefe 0 Report post Posted January 7 The procedure can't be done for me: I can open Fix recovery mode menu (third line), then I can select my Epson wf-2510, then push UPDATE and I receive a warning message "Selected firmware: WF-2510 WF-2511 WF-2518 PX-505F. Please, make sure that selected firmware is matched to the printer. Otherwise reset key may be lost. Continue?" I push YES and the utility asks me to buy and insert a new firmware key. I tried inserting the firmware key I paid for, but it doesn't work. I'm stucked! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fefe 0 Report post Posted January 8 Ok, done! Now printer is again in Normal mode, thanks. I cannot yet use not original refillable cartridges, although I have paid and used your firmware key to downgrade. I still get a Printer error message when I switch on the printer with not original cartridges installed. I also checked Chipless solutions, but seems that my printer isn't supported. Any idea?

John_Admin 373 Report post Posted January 8 If you want your printer can work with NOT OEM ink cartridges - you can use Firmware Downgrade or Chipless Firmware solutions. As chipless firmware is not available for 2510 printer - the only way is to make firmware downgrade to 2016 firmware Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fefe 0 Report post Posted January 8 I already tried Firmware downgrade. I've bought a Firmware key and performed the procedure in order to downgrade but it failed. The printer remained stucked with the message IPLH ROM NOT WRITABLE, as I said in another thread in this forum, but nobody answered. THen it passed in Recovery mode as I said before.

John_Admin 373 Report post Posted January 8 I am afraid you have to use Epson original ink cartridges now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
