Andres R 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2019 Hello. The last upgrade for epson xp231 ((FO04JA 04/10/2019) is not allowing firmware downgrade. So license program and chipless solution does not work anymore for that printer. Some solution by now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please, try to use latest version of the firmware: https://chiplesssolutions.com/download/chipless/XP230_FWE857TL_FO30HA_FO99Z9.zip make sure that all epson services and processes are disabled and try to update in normal working mode.

Andres R 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2019 -It does not work. I tried several time. The new firmware from Epson ((FO04JA 04/10/2019) Cannot be erased. -When you say "normal working model", you mean no maintenance mode? I tried this too. Didn't work. -How can I be sure that all epson services and processes are disabled? Best regards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John_Admin 365 Report post Posted November 26, 2019 Download new firmware - https://chiplesssolutions.com/download/chipless/XP230_FWE857TL_FO30HA_FO99Z9.zip Extract all files to folder. Upload firmware to printer in normal mode - dont put printer in Program Update mode. The uploading process will stuck at 70-80% - it is ok! Open task manager and stop updater process. Printer will blink for about 5-15 minutes - then will power OFF. Now power on the printer - chipless firmware is installed now in your printer! Please reply about results.

wic.support 15 Report post Posted December 2, 2019 Good day. In order to update fimrware on XP-230/231 in normal mode printer must be ready to print, you either need to install original cartridges temporarily or compatible CIS that is still recognized.
