Epson WF-3520 firmware update failure

When putting the drivers into a new Win7 install, Epson's search-and-destroy printer identifier and installer decided on its own to update firmware; of course, it crashed. Printer is now stuck in partial-start state - when you power it up, Power LED flashes and beeps once or twice as normal, display starts to come up, then it quits.

I have the firmware updater utility that is SUPPOSED to work, and a couple of the Epson service programs, but they will not connect to the printer via USB.

What is the procedure to do a hardware reset on the WF-3520 (panel keys held down, timing...) to get the bootloader in the microcontroller to reset and go to the "Recovery Mode" function where you can install firmware?

Epsons are just all DUDs now. Biggest piece of crap cant connect to wifi cant connect with the usb cable and on a laptop that can it fails to print red or blue! No the Iink is not empty No the Head cleaner does not work I got 10 pages out a brand-new printer and it went Kaput! Piece of crap. Still trying a yr later and as soon as it gets to Firmware update it freezes says the printer isn't there and round n round in circles. It's the 'Fancy new cartridgeless' DUD!

Try to update the firmware for your printer by following steps: (This process is only applied in window version only)

  1. Make sure your Epson product and computer are connected to the same wireless network
  2. Click Start Button or Start > All Programs or Programs > Epson Software > Epson Software Updater. If you don't see Epson Software Updater in the Epson Software folder, go to the Epson Software Updater page to download and install the utility.
  3. When you see the screen, select the check box next to each available update and click Install.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to update your product's firmware.

Its all done now.

For more info please refer to Epson WorkForce WF-3520 Manual.

Despite this is for a d different printer than my 7620 and it was a Windows 7 generation issue, it does not respond to the core problem which is the Epson Software Updater fails continually. Getting sent to a website that tells you to go through the process that does not work is of not value at all.

In addition Epson has refused to respond to direct requests for help with this. I would like to be able to download the needed files and update my fimware without using the Epson Software Updater. Oh yea, I reinstalled the upload too so I know it is fresh and running.

I solved this problem by trashing the printer. Because ”epson assistence” was to change the mainboard with a cost that surpasses the printer value itself. I’ll never buy an Epson for the rest of my life. Amen.

HI,

You have to replace the eprom chip with the new one and your printer will work again like new.

You can find the eprom chip in online store.

"You need more reputation points to vote someone down." Ha, more BS. It still does not help me. A search on the Epson website for eprom chip returns a variety of gadgets to hang a TV from the ceiling.
