#1 Solution: Epson Stuck in Printer Mode Set Jig - Push [OK] BT 

Thank you so freaking much. I just helped my Dad fix his printer - he is 72, sick with motor neuron disease, and for some reason was madly determined to print this document at 11:25 at night. Because of you I was able to help my dear old, sick dad, and for that I am so thankful.

Thank you so much for this video! Thanks to you we had a working printer for homeschooling during last year's lockdown. The printer is still running well ❤️

I bought my printer about 4 years ago and loved it, then one day it gave me this bug. I've been tinkering with it off and on ever since but couldn't find a good troubleshooting guide until now. Thank you so much!

I'm a high school teacher trying to survive virtual school. Feel like I have to be an IT specialist now. Thank you so much for making this video.

i can only repeat what everyone else has mentioned - this video was so useful and saved me hours and money to resolve. Thanks so much for posting

Everytime Epson updates the software it reverts back to this mode and every time I have to reference this video - THANK YOU!

WOW...You're my savior..There was nothing on the Epson website. Thank you so much.

Epson said my printer was done for. Dude you rock literally 3minutes and I was up and rolling

this is not the first time it happens to me! amazing work, keep on loading videos. thank you.

This exact issue happened to our printer and thanks to this video, I was able to fix it! Thanks so much for your help!

Your video just saved me hundreds of dollars after Epson support told me that the printer was unfixable and out of warranty. Thank you!

My Epson WF-7710 printer is working fine (except needs deep clean of head). When I bought it used I updated the firmware from Epson. (I agree Epson never have anything new to offer in FE updates so no reason to do this.) When I first use Epson FW updater it said “Downgraded firmware (firmware cannot be updated).” But after trying a few different times it reported normal FW version and let me update it. Your videos are always very informative and helpful. Thank you.

Epson Support told me to buy another one. You have saved me tons of money. Thank you sir

thanks a lot!! we've been fixing it for an hour and finaly found your advice

It works! I meet this problem for several times. I used to call some tech guys to solve this problem remotely. Now , I can do this all by my self in just 2 minutes!

Thank you so very much! We had this printer for a little over a year and the warranty had run out. They updated the firmware and it was disabled. I looked all over the web in 2019 for an answer, but found nothing. It's been sitting since then. I just got it up and running again! Just trying to clean the printer heads to get it working well again. Much appreciated!!!!

Thank you for posting this video. Your process worked perfectly for me, and now my printer is working again...whew!!

I literally feel like a genius because of you, I watched your video on hold with Epson customer service after they told me I couldn't do anything to fix it and I am 2 months over my warranty so they said I had to send it to a technician and pay to get it replaced.

Thank you for this video, I was literally going crazy trying find out the problem for my printer. 😊

Thank you!! Best help! I couldn't find help to get anything fixed until I found this video.

Today it is my time to say tank you very much indeed. Without this video I don't know how I could underpass this Epson's "technical treat" to their users. My Epson model is ET-2750 and it's WiFi name also changed without notice. "Add new printer" feature on Windows 10 was also required to enable printing on my notebook.

Thank you. That info was life saving...... Just like everyone else I was clueless after searching for official support in the EPSON web site. Thanks again man..

Thanks so much, you saved me a lot of hassles with my printers. I was ready to return it to Best Buy.

Thank you!! I had no idea what was wrong or how to go about fixing it. Let alone, the control panel tilts??? That will make it all easier going forward thanks a million

Thank you so much my printer has been down for weeks, you get 1000 cool points.

You know a way to reflash the original firmware? And also reset to the point that not restart in that mode anymore. Because in my case wifi not work, at least don't found my network, but all others yes. My network is fine. All devices easily connected to it. Even older devices. I want to be able to restore to the initial firmware

Thank you so much, perfect video after finding nothing on the Epson website

Thank you so much. The fix worked and I even discovered that I could flip up the display screen. Never knew. Bonus. Thank you

PERFECT!!!!! Very helpful and easy to follow, life saver!!!! THANK YOU!

Thank you so much, your step by step video is awesomely. My printer now works again.

You, sir, are a steely-eyed missile man! Saved the day, thanks.

Thank you! I've got exactly the same situation now, but that was helpful ! From🇯🇵

this worked amazing for a used printer I bought for $40 that had this very error! thank you!!

You saved me from purchasing a new printer! Thank you!

Génial Kevin, ça a marché exactement comme vous l’avez décrit .sur un ET 2750 Merci infiniment. Marie

Thanks. Will remember not to update firmware on Epson! Or have the auto update switched on. Would you give this advice for other makes if printer?

This video just saved my printer, THANK YOU!

THANK YOU! It works! En español, para los que están viendo si funciona. A mí no me funcionó a la primera, pero después de un rato que hacen eso de presionar el botón de inicio y el de encendido si aparece el menú y funciona.

A big THANK YOU for this Video and the great help. Greetings from Germany

What would we do without YT... thank you for fixing our printer. Will remember never to update firmware again.

You are my hero! I super appreciate your video; it fixed this nasty problem for me; I thought I bricked the thing...

Thank you!! Most helpful video on the internet!

Thank you for this video! I contacted Epson support and they told me there was nothing they could do for me because my warranty expired two days ago 😡 all the guy wanted was for me to buy a new printer. I do NOT recommend this printer. Again, thank you for the video and saving me $$

HUGE HELP!!! Thanks so much for making this video!!

Brilliant saved the day. Thank you so much.!!!

You're a hero!! Thanks man!

Kevin, Thank you very much. Worked perfectly!

I have bught ET-2750 from costco. And I find the screen showed SCM FT mode. I need press home botton and power together to select normal made. I want to know how to exit this made. Thank U

Great job, thank you for the help with my ecotank printer.

on my et-2750 there is no display at all.. if I remove power and leave it few seconds, then press the power button and plug the mains in, the blue power button lights up solide but no display at all. I have trried Home and power button together but no luck.. any ideas will be appreciated.

Thank you so much!!!!! This fixed my printer!

WHAT a life SAVER!!!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!

Although your trick worked perfectly, now when I print, it prints bolder and darker than it used to. Any ideas?

Mine defaults to that same place each and everytime i turn off then turn on the printer. Plus a red Flag check that says Inspection ON Initial Charge OFF

Thank you very much for this information. What Epson helpdesk couldn't do to help me, you in turn Sir were able to do so.

How do you do it with a WF-2540 model that doesn’t have a home button?? What buttons do I push then?

My printer is the same as this one 2750 ET it is saying Epson Printer Recovery mode. It's not working is this a different mode?

How to get out of printer inspection mode on a ET 4750, what's the code for it? It's not like for ET16500. Yesterday I somehow got stuck into it while trying to physically unclog the printer and now I can't get out of it neither with the recovery mode firmware, nor with wic reset downdrade (the wic tool gets not responding and doesn't find the printer at the end).

Can the printheads be cleaned TOO much on this printer? It sat for a long time not being used. Now it won't print - but it's 3/4 full of ink. ANY ADVICE? Thanks SO much!

Worked perfectly. Thank you for your help.

Thanks from Canada!

You solved the problem! Thank you!

Thank you from France!! 🙏😉

Thank you so much, great video. The printer works again.

This was super helpful! Thank you!!!!

Hi! Do you know how to do this for L5190? Help please.

Thanks now my mom can print stuff!

Hello, can you tell me how to enter that mode in the epson L5190 model?

2 total on the phone with Epson. According to them I had to update the firmware, update my pc, restart my pc, restart my router, restart my printer, restart my home server, update my home server, update my printer again... For my next printer, could you give us some advice on what I should buy for my next printer?

Hello friend, can you tell how to enter the inspection mode of an epson WF2830?

Thank you! It worked perfectly. Thought my printer is broken

Thank you so much for posting this helpful video, you save me a lot of time, the Epson "support" site is good for nothing! Thanks for sharing

Lifesaver! Thank you so very much!

Thanks man I’m from Brazil and until this video I was thinking to take Fire in this printer 😂😂😂

Hi This has happened to my Epson ET 15000, how can I fixed this please. Thank you

Muchas gracias, fue justo cuando actualicé, hay que quejarse a Epson. No se puede consentir esto.

how to deep clean? because that requires the power on and ? and this does not work if I follow this startup instructions...

I have an Epson et-2720 and i have been looking every where on the net for solutions and also trouble shooting with Espon which is a joke but my printer is stuck on SCN FT Mode and then the screen turns white. I tryed restarting it and pushing all the button combos and the only one the seems to work is the power button and the ok button which takes me to a screen where i have to input some numbers which i have no idea what to input. Has anyone ran into this issue and if so can you please help. Thank you

I have a same problem with my ET 2650 eco tank printer. How do I fix it, can u help me

Thank you so much for this video

Any idea how to fox Epson ET-2750 stuck in recovery mode

This worked for me the first time this happened but there was a power outage last night and it went back into jig mode. It won't work this time. Helps please!

PERFECTION! THANK YOU!!

Thank you! You saved me!!!

Yes Sir! Thank you so much. It worked!

My et2750 is now stuck in this SP mode. How do I go back to normal "flag off" boot into printer mode?

Olá, esse procedimento serve na Epson M2120 ? estou com essa mensagem PRINTER MODE, e não sai de jeito nenhum

Hola mi Epson ET 2650 sigue con print mode y luego le sale una pantalla roja que dice Flag check, Inspection On, Initial charge: off, Push (Power) BT. Me puede ayudar. G racias

Same problem, same model, got to the reset with home button, but I don't get the gear - after selecting Normal, it just goes to a scroll list in Kanji - waiting for my cousin's husband, Kenji, to help me - so close!

What is the secret service code for WF-7710 printer?

Kevin, is there a way to register the print after doing this so you can use features like Epson Connect? I would frequently email documents to the printer's email address but now I am not able to do that. Thanks again!

You get my like hero 🙌🏼

Very helpful, thanks!

YES! Thank you!

You are awesome!!!

Thanks a lot for this video, as for many here, it helped greatly. A question however, everytime the printer powers back on (after a power outage for instance), it starts in "jig mode". After using your trick, I'm back in the Japanese menu which is not a problem, but all my calibration is lost and I have to go through the printing heads alignment process all over again. Running a manual firmware update through usb connection doesn't work, it fails everytime to reboot the printer during the process, and sends me back to the recovery mode. Any advice ?

Thanks for the help!!!

Thank you so much!!!

Thank you for the video

It worked! Thank you!
