    Your original firmware cannot be downgraded to earlier versions, and our chipless firmware is an earlier version.  

    Basic concepts of the solution: 

    - Standard InkChip firmware. Chipless firmware, which must be loaded into the printer using Firmware Mode. - 99 InkChip firmware. Chipless firmware, which must be loaded into Normal Mode. 

    - Firmware Mode - special mode for updating printer firmware, which is activated when a certain buttons combination is pressed. 

    - Normal Mode - normal mode of operation of the printer, simple switching on the printer with the power button.  

     

    Algorithm for solving the problem: 

    1. Check and memorize the firmware version of the printer. The firmware version displayed is the original non-update version. 

    2. Flash printer 99 with InkChip firmware in Firmware Mode. 

    3. When trying to activate the firmware with the Activation program and the activation code, the program will generate the Reading failed 1. 

    4. Start flashing the printer 99 again with InkChip firmware in Firmware Mode. When the firmware status in Firmware Mode reaches 100%, and the printer display finishes counting the percentage of the firmware status, you need to pull out the power cable of the printer. 

    5. Connect the power cable and turn on the printer. Recovery Mode will appear on the display. 

    6. Flash the printer with Inkchip firmware in Recovery Mode. 

    7. Check the firmware version of the printer. The firmware version displayed must be different from the non-renewable firmware version. This version is the chipless firmware version of InkChip. 

    8. Activate chipless firmware with the Activation program.

    This is just an example of a process, it doesn't matter what model of printer you have. Please watch the video on our official YouTube channel:

    And after that just ran again the inkchip firmware upload in normal mode.

    I would like to install the chipless firmware on an Epson WF-7710

    I normally use the printer through ethernet connection.

    Can I hook up the USB to do the firmware, then return to ethernet connection, or do I need to keep the USB connection in place?

    Do I need to disconnect ethernet connection to do the firmware update?

    Thank you 

    Hello!

    For  activation process you have to have USB connection-it is obligatory.

    Any solution for EC-C7000 yet?   I've gone through 2 full sets of XLblack and standard YCM cartridges, and have only printed about 800 B&W 8.5x11 mostly Text pages. Very disappointed with this printer.  I bought it to do 13x19 prints, but haven't even printed 1 yet. I'm worried about running out of a color part way through. 

    Hello,

    Unfortunately we don’t have solution for this model. As soon as we have a new model solution, it appears on the website.

    I open and run the firmware. I have successfully done it 5 times...I have verified no other printers. When I hit ok the printer turns off... When I turn it back on and start the activation software I get a strange box and error messages...the printer just displays no ink tanks... I have done with chipless tanks in and out. I just bought this morning and after hours I still cannot get it to work.

    the computer connects properly to the address via telnet but the activation throws a 10060 error but the upload program doesn't manage to flash the printer anyway, even if I interrupt the process before some error flag is triggered at 70 to 80% the printer never goes into 'flashing lights mode' to indicate that the upload was successful and that it installed the new firmware..

    In this case,please,try the same procedure on the another device,it could be something in it what prevents activation.

    tengo este mismo problema ya realice lo indicado en el video pero al retirar los cartuchos y volver a colocarlos deja de reconocerlos y vualve aparacer la luz roja de la tinta en la impresora, podrian darme una solucion 

     

    Please try this new file for you.

    https://inkchip.net/download/INKCHIP.net_Firmware_99_XP240_v1.rar

    1) Upload firmware which I sent

    2) Switch on in normal mode(!!!!) just turn on button . - dont put printer in Program Update mode. (no need to press few buttons while turn on the printer)

    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 in your printer!

    Hello! i already bought the firmware which was super easy to open and run, however, this activation key- It is ridiculous!!!!!!!!.  I purchased, i got my key, i unziped or extracted the file using PeaZIP and turned it into an .EXE file. When i click on it i get this white and red box that reads "Activation" At the top and it is in weird language and when i enter my key it just force closes. HELPPPPPPPP i really dont want to call my bank and report you guys as fraud. Thank you! 

    Hi!

    Did you mean that your printer is not connected to your computer via network, but only via a usb cable? But you still have to use WIFi to install and activate chipless firmware.

    If you are doing everything right, but it doesn't help, then try the following:

    Several factors exist that may cause this connection to fail:

    1. Remote server is not available.

    2. Internet connection is missing or unstable.

    3. Application is blocked individually via firewall/antivirus/etc.

    4. One of the used ports or addresses is blocked for the entire system.

    Not much can be done for the first and second cases, but server downtime is very rare and brief. Next steps will help to resolve this problem in the third and fourth cases.

    1. Checking port availability.

    1.1. We will use standard telnet client for this operation because Windows components is rarely blocked by protection software. Telnet client is already activated for Windows XP, but you need to turn it on manually for Windows Vista and later versions.

    1.2. In order to activate telnet client, go to the `main menu -> control panel -> programs and features -> turn windows features on or off` and make sure that `telnet client` box is checked, then press `OK`.

    1.3. Open console window and type `telnet 178.63.104.69 23457` then press enter.

    1.4. If you see black screen with cursor then telnet is successfully connected to the server, which means that port is available system wide and something is blocking WICReset specifically.

    1.5. If you will see some errors in the console output (typically: `could not open connection to the host on port`), then this port is blocked for entire system or on the remote device.

    3.1. If your PC is in the local network, make sure that connections to the 23457 port is allowed in the gateway server's firewall settings.

    3.2. If you are using router with enabled firewall rules, make sure that connections to the 178.63.104.69:23457 is allowed for target PC (firewall settings usually available via router's web interface).

    3.3. If VPN provider is used, make sure, that system routing table contains correct entries that include remote server address.

    3.4. Make sure, that protection software doesn't have global rule that blocks connections to the used ports. Some protection software may have default rules that limit connections only to the most widely used port numbers (http, ftp, etc).

    3.5. Some third party software (for example, some VPN software) may also provide additional firewall-like protection service. Make sure, that these applications either disabled during waste reset or WICReset is added to their exclusion list when possible.

    4. List of used ports:

    4.1. Application will connect to remote server on 178.63.104.69:23457 (TCP) for waste counters reset. 4.2. Application will use 80 (TCP/HTTP) port in order to download database and RSS feed during initialization.

    4.3. Ports 3289 (UDP/ENPC), 161 (UDP/SNMP) and 515 (TCP/LPD) will be used to discover network printers and communicate with them.
