Chip firmware on xerox 3160 n cartridge.

Flashing the printer Xerox Phaser 3160B

The Phaser 3160B is another representative of the Xerox line of printers, replacing its predecessor, the Phaser 3125B printer. How can you describe the novelty in a nutshell? Without exaggeration, it can be called one of the most acceptable laser printers in the modern printing market, and not only because of the design and technical specifications, but also based on the traditional "price - quality" ratio. The Xerox Phaser 3160B was conceived as a publicly available personal or networked machine for small or medium-sized businesses that need responsiveness, professional display and layout modes for printed documents, maximum simplicity and intuitive operation. The task was solved with a bang: the Xerox Phaser 3160B prints at a pace of about 24 A4 pages per minute, is installed and brought into combat readiness with a few simple movements, compares favorably with an expanded set of various functions and modes, including the ability to print watermarks, complex overlays , postcards and brochures. In a word, this cute baby makes it possible to perform tasks of a very different nature and level of complexity. At the same time, the ergonomic design and minimal noise background allow you to relax "both the eye and the ear", concentrating as much as possible on the performance of their work duties.

In this regard, everything is clear, only the answer to the question remains unclear, how to achieve the same "grace" in providing a printer consumables? After all, the Xerox Phaser 3160B, although it is a monochrome printer, and, therefore, needs only one cartridge, can be quite expensive. Especially in case of intensive use. Some clarity is brought by such a service as refilling cartridges, however, to use its benefits, an additional flashing of the Xerox Phaser 3160B printer is required. Without this procedure, the protective mechanism will work, blocking the operation of the printer, as they say, “until the circumstances are clarified”, in our case, until a new original cartridge is installed in the device. To avoid this, you need to reset the counter of printed pages and remove the chip from the cartridge, and in order for the printer to accept a refilled cartridge without a chip, you need to replace its software, that is, reflash the Xerox Phaser 3160B. The path to savings, as we see, is complex and thorny, but not when the specialists of our company get down to business. In the latter case, the procedure for flashing the Xerox Phaser 3160B looks something like this: they brought the printer to our workshop, waited 15 minutes, and you're done!

They brought me a Xerox Phaser 3160n printer today, they said it was necessary to unlock it, this device fell into my hands for the first time.

I started to select firmware for it, read a lot, downloaded a lot, but it’s hard to kill someone else’s printer myself, a thing with extra hryvnia on the road is not lying around, but overcoming my fears, having gathered courage, I decided to try out the first firmware version v1.04.00.79f, download or (turbobit) or (letitbit). Since this Xerox is similar to Samsung, by analogy, I entered the service mode, launched dwn2580, the printer blinked, after waiting a few seconds (5-10), I unplugged the power cord and connected it again. Turning on the printer with the power button, he began to pretend as if it starts to take paper and stops immediately (and so 10 times - that's what he counted). I decided that I bought myself a new printer and was very upset (there were a lot of mats, I don’t describe them). Since there was nothing to lose, I decided to try the second firmware version v1.50.0062f, download it, did everything exactly like the previous time and the printer worked, now there was a lot of joy.

In general, I decided all the same to deal with these two firmware and figured it out. I won’t fool you anymore with stories about my experiences, I’ll get to the point.

1. Remove the chip from the cartridge.

BEFORE

AFTER

2. Connect the printer to the computer via USB cable(and only through it)

3. Press the "Resume" button and the "Power" button at the same time, keep these buttons pressed, connect the power cord to the printer, the red and green indicators light up. The printer is in service mode.

4. Open the folder with the firmware and run the dwn3160 file (if the firmware is v1.50.0062) or dwn2580 (if it is V1.04.00.79F), there will be such a visual accompaniment:

5. But this point is the most important, the point where I made a mistake and I ask you not to repeat it, when you launched the firmware file, the lights started flashing, your task is to wait until these lights go out and only the power button is on, I waited 88 seconds (plus minus 15 seconds for you to wait).

So, above I described the firmware procedure, and now about the firmware itself.

I did not like the firmware number 79, I explain why, because after the printer was flashed with this version, it began to be identified as Samsung 2850, ordinary user who does not know where to download the driver, it seems to me that it will be very inconvenient. I immediately liked the firmware version 62, because the first one turned out to be sewn in, and secondly, the printer remained the same as it was the Xerox Phaser 3160, but the printer was already unlocked. Here are the reports that the printers printed after flashing:

Warranty Terms

Before making a final decision, read all the warranty nuances that you may not have known about:

  1. Printer firmware. An exciting question. What will happen to the guarantee? The firmware of the Xerox Phaser 3160 printer is made without interfering with the case and the machine's boards. An engineer can easily upload and roll back the flashing, which means restoring the factory settings, which means the WARRANTY IS KEEPED.

  2. Factory warranty. IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW!!! Warranty service centres, will refuse to repair you under warranty if they discover the fact of refueling or flashing. The client takes responsibility and decides to keep the factory warranty, but overpay for original cartridge or save, but lose the manufacturer's warranty.

  3. Our guarantee. Our engineers are experienced and know what they are doing. After finishing the work, the engineer installs the sticker of our company (important, check the warranty stickers), which is the guarantor of our professionalism. Any problem that has arisen, after we have performed the service, is solved under warranty.

Printer firmware (firmware) is the setting software printer with a fixed code that resets the counter of printed pages and prevents the printer from blocking.

Crypto protection (in other words, protection against refueling) installed in modern Samsung and Xerox devices counts down the specified value by the formatter program code (shown in the picture), the number of pages printed, after which the printer is blocked and until you install a new cartridge or flash your printer, it will not work. The firmware of the device is done without opening and other actions aimed at violating the integrity, the printer is entered into the service mode, after which the FIX is loaded via USB.
On the issue manufacturer's warranty. If you are worried that in the event of a printer breakdown you will not be able to contact the warranty workshop, we want to reassure you, let's say your paper pickup roller is broken, you are going to carry the printer or MFP to the service, you can return firmware
firmware for the period of repair in the warranty workshop of the manufacturer or seller. Many of our customers turn to the warranty service and save a lot on refilling cartridges. Let's try to calculate the savings on the example of one printer... well, for example Samsung ML-1660. Now many are wondering "What is printer firmware?".

An average-sized office buys a new cartridge (2240 ​​rubles) about once a month. Refilling the cartridge (350 rubles) is also required approximately once a month. The printer will last approximately 4 years or 48 months.
2240 rub. x 48 months = 107520 rub. This is an approximate cost for the purchase of cartridges for 4 years (WOW!!!..........)
350 rub. cartridge refill x 48 months =16800 rub. refueling expense for 4 years + 1000 rubles. (firmware) = 17800 rubles.
Thus, an exemplary saving for 4 years will be
89720 rubles, (it's over, this is a rough calculation, during this time you will have to buy several cartridges since the physical resource is limited) and this is on 1 printer, and now think, do office equipment manufacturers not want to lose that kind of money from users of their printers and MFPs? Of course, Samsung and Xerox are against refilling cartridges in any form, the fight against refillers continues until the economy wins, we'll see what happens next.

The Xerox Phaser 3160 printer, which uses Laser B/W printing technology with a maximum paper size of A4, a print resolution of 1200x1200dpi and a print speed of up to 24ppm pages per minute, its use in small and medium-sized businesses, at home with a small amount of printing , perfectly proved itself in terms of quality and the possibility of refilling cartridges.

The starter cartridge is designed for 600-700 pages (this is the starter - trial cartridge) at which time the Xerox Phaser 3160 Printer indicates that the toner cartridge is running out and you need to buy and install a new one. But here there is a choice - buy a new cartridge or refill an empty one. If you choose the second option, a certain problem appears, namely: a microcircuit (chip) is built into the cartridges for this printer, it transmits information about the remaining toner in the cartridge hopper to the machine. And if you are refilling a cartridge, it is not enough to cover it with toner, you need to remove crypto protection from the chip (block the count of printed pages).

Here again, there are two options for solving the problem - change the chip in the cartridge or the printer firmware (software change) in the printer. Replacing the chip is an expensive pleasure, since the chip has to be changed every time the cartridges are refilled, this is the main disadvantage of the replacement. The second one is much more profitable and less problematic than the constant replacement of the chip - the Xerox Phaser 3160 printer is reflashed once and for all.

The firmware of the Xerox Phaser 3160 printer is carried out both in our workshop (1-2 hours in time) and in the client's office. The customer must have a computer (laptop) with operating system Windows and an Internet connection.
