    More and more Creators, Designers and Crafters are moving towards Sublimation. Many have purchased and converted the Workforce 7310, 7820, & 7840 into a Sublimation Printer. The problem is, not many are educated about the updates that are being pushed out by the manufacture. Why is this a problem? Well, the updates do not work well with after market cartridges and chips. Here's what you should know about the firmware updates...

      I did the firmware update from 3.05 to 3.06 by mistake. My fillable cartridges won't read anymore, so I had to buy new ink. I didn't go for the SAWGRASS as 300.00 is a bit ridiculous for price. After having a email war with SAWGRASS representatives trying to get my firmware reversed, they told me I would void my warranty, told them I don't have any warranty. Everything was working fine before the firmware with my refillables. So forced to buy new ink, I bought HIPPO compatible ink for the SAWGRASS. It won't read INK levels on two of the compatible cartridges but it still prints, I just won't know when I'm out of ink. Good Grief. So I'm thinking of taking the Chips from the HIPPO ink and replacing on my refillable cartridges, it should read crossing fingers.

    Hi. I just happened to stumble upon your channel. This video is from 2 years ago. Question: Does everything in this video still applies today? Does this also applies to the Epson Ecotank Printers? Does it matter if these printers are inkjet or sublimation (as far as setting it to "Never")? Thank you in advance for responding back to me. ❤😊

    I'm thinking of purchasing the 7310..so i f I get it now..does that mean when I install it. It will have the new version of update that won't accept off market chips? Or is it still ok to install new and then change to never update after that?

    • @theblanksspot

      If your printer brand new there are no updates at all. So when you convert your printer toy sublimation printer do you need to make sure that you turn off the automatic updates and do not except any updates that are being pushed by Epson. I hope This answers your question.

From watching your previous video on how to turn the 7310 into a sub. I think you said that's not available as of yet? And chips are of use one time. Sorry if I'm wrong. So can there be a chip resetter for this item? Just so I know its legit. Thanks in advance

It does suck, however the manufacturer has realized that we’re using these printers as a work around to avoid purchasing an expensive sub printer. These updates are meant for regular use printers not ones that are modified. We do however sell the chips.
