Epson Printer Configuration tool via SNMP (TCP/IP)
The Epson Printer Configuration Tool provides an interface for the configuration and monitoring of Epson printers connected via Wi-Fi using the SNMP protocol. A range of features are offered for both end-users and developers.
The software also includes a configurable printer dictionary, which can be easily extended. In addition, it is possible to import and convert external Epson printer configuration databases.
SNMP Interface: Connect and manage Epson printers using SNMP over TCP/IP, supporting Wi-Fi connections (not USB).
Printers are queried via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) with a set of Object Identifiers (OIDs) used by Epson printers. Some of them are also valid with other printer brands. SNMP is used to manage the EEPROM and read/set specific Epson configuration.
Detailed Status Reporting: Produce a comprehensive printer status report (with options to focus on specific details).
Epson printers produce a status response in a proprietary "new binary format" named @BDC ST2, including a data structure which is partially undocumented (such messages
start with @BDC [SP] ST2 [CR] [LF]
...). @BDC ST2 is used to convey various aspects of the status of the printer, such as errors, paper status, ink and more. The element fields of this format may vary depending on the printer model. The Epson Printer Configuration Tool can decode all element fields found in publicly available Epson Programming Manuals of various printer models (a relevant subset of fields used by the Epson printers).
Advanced Maintenance Functions:
Open the Web interface of the printer (via the default browser).
Reset the ink waste counter.
The ink waste counters track the amount of ink discarded during maintenance tasks to prevent overflow in the waste ink pads. Once the counters indicate that one of the printer pads is full, the printer will stop working to avoid potential damage or ink spills. Resetting the ink waste counter extends the printer operation while a pad maintenance or tank replacement is programmed (operation that shall necessarily be pefromed).
Adjust the power-off timer (for energy efficiency).
Change the First TI Received Time,
The First TI Received Time in Epson printers typically refers to the timestamp of the first transmission instruction to the printer. This feature tracks when the printer first operated.
Change the printer WiFi MAC address and the printer serial number (typically used in specialized scenarios where specific device identifiers are required).
Read and write to EEPROM addresses.
Dump and analyze sets of EEPROM addresses.
Detect the access key (read_key and write_key) and some attributes of the printer configuration.
The GUI includes some features that attempt to detect the attributes of an Epson printer whose model is not included in the configuration; such features can also be used with known printers, to detect additional parameters.
Import and export printer configuration datasets in various formats: epson_print_conf pickle, Reinkpy XML, Reinkpy TOML.
Access various administrative and debugging options.
Available Interfaces:
Note on the ink waste counter reset feature: resetting the ink waste counter is just removing a lock; not replacing the tank will reduce the print quality and make the ink spill.
Install requirements using requirements.txt:
git clone https://github.com/Ircama/epson_print_conf
cd epson_print_conf
pip install -r requirements.txt
Notes (at the time of writing):
This program exploits pysnmp, basing on the related documentation.
It is tested with Ubuntu / Windows Subsystem for Linux, Windows.
The epson_print_conf.zip archive in the Releases folder incudes the epson_print_conf.exe executable asset; the ZIP archive is auto-generated by a GitHub Action. epson_print_conf.exe is a Windows GUI that can be directly executed.
Run ui.py as in this example:
python ui.py
This GUI runs on any Operating Systems supported by Python (not just Windows), but needs that Tkinter is installed. While the Tkinter package might be generally available by default with recent Python versions for Windows, it needs a specific installation on other Operating Systems.
GUI usage:
usage: ui.py [-h] [-m MODEL] [-a HOSTNAME] [-P PICKLE_FILE] [-O] [-d]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m MODEL, --model MODEL
Printer model. Example: -m XP-205
-a HOSTNAME, --address HOSTNAME
Printer host name or IP address. (Example: -a 192.168.1.87)
-P PICKLE_FILE, --pickle PICKLE_FILE
Load a pickle configuration archive saved by parse_devices.py
-O, --override Replace the default configuration with the one in the pickle file instead of merging (default is to merge)
-d, --debug Print debug information
epson_print_conf GUI
With the GUI, the following operations are possible (from the file menu):
Load a PICKLE configuration file or web URL.
This operation allows to open a file saved with the GUI ("Save the selected printer configuration to a PICKLE file") or with the parse_devices.py utility. In addition to the printer configuration DB, this file includes the last used IP address and printer model in order to simplify the GUI usage.
Import an XML configuration file or web URL
This option allows to import the XML configuration file downloaded from https://codeberg.org/attachments/147f41a3-a6ea-45f6-8c2a-25bac4495a1d. Alternatively, this option directly accepts the source Web URL of this file, incorporating the download operation into the GUI.
Import a TOML configuration file or web URL
Similar to the XML import, this option allows to load the TOML configuration file downloaded from https://codeberg.org/atufi/reinkpy/raw/branch/main/reinkpy/epson.toml and also accepts the source Web URL of this file, incorporating the download operation into the GUI.
Other menu options allow to filter or clean up the configuration list, as well as select a specific printer model and then save data to a PICKLE file.
First press "Detect Printers". If the printer is not in the configuration, press "Detect Access Keys". If the output does not show errors, press "Detect Configuration". These commands produce a tree view and a text view, which are useful to analyze whether there is a configured model that might be close or possibly same to target one. Use the right key of the mouse to switch between the two views. Notice that these operations take many minutes to complete and the printer shall be kept switched on for the whole period. Temporarily disabling the auto power-off timer is suggested.
The GUI displays a [NOTE]
in the status box before performing any change, specifying the current EEPROM values before the rewrite operation. This line can be copied and pasted as is into the text box that appears when the "Write EEPROM" button is pressed; the execution of the related action reverts the changes to their original values.
It is recommended to copy the status history and keep it in a safe place after making changes, so that a reverse operation can be performed when needed.
For the following models there is no known way to read the EEPROM via SNMP protocol using the adopted read key and the related algorithm:
python epson_print_conf.py [-h] -m MODEL -a HOSTNAME [-p PORT] [-i] [-q QUERY_NAME] [--reset_waste_ink] [-d]

Epson Printer Configuration via SNMP (TCP/IP)
Examples:
# Print the status information (-i is not needed):
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -i
# Reset all waste ink levels to 0:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 --reset_waste_ink
# Change the first TI received time to 31 December 2016:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 --write-first-ti-received-time 2016 12 31
# Change the power off timer to 15 minutes:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -a 192.168.1.87 -m XP-205 --write-poweroff-timer 15
# Detect the read_key via brute force:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 --detect-key
# Only print status information:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -q printer_status
# Only print SNMP 'MAC Address' name:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -q 'MAC Address'
# Only print SNMP 'Lang 5' name:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -q 'Lang 5'
# Write value 1 to the EEPROM address 173 and value 0xDE to the EEPROM address 172:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -W 173:1,172:0xde
# Read EEPROM address 173 and EEPROM address 172:
python3 epson_print_conf.py -m XP-205 -a 192.168.1.87 -R 173,172
Alternatively to running the GUI via python ui.py
, it is possible to build an executable file via pyinstaller.
Install pyinstaller with pip install pyinstaller
.
The epson_print_conf.spec file helps building the executable program. Run it with the following command.
pip install pyinstaller # if not yet installed
pyinstaller epson_print_conf.spec -- --default
Then run the executable file created in the dist/ folder, which has the same options of ui.py
.
It is also possible to automatically load a previously created configuration file that has to be named epson_print_conf.pickle, merging it with the program configuration. (See below the parse_devices.py utility.) To build the executable program with this file, run the following command:
pip install pyinstaller # if not yet installed
curl -o devices.xml https://codeberg.org/attachments/147f41a3-a6ea-45f6-8c2a-25bac4495a1d
python3 parse_devices.py -a 192.168.178.29 -s XP-205 -p epson_print_conf.pickle # use your default IP address and printer model as default settings for the GUI
pyinstaller epson_print_conf.spec
Same procedure using the Reinkpy's epson.toml file (in place of devices.xml):
pip install pyinstaller # if not yet installed
curl -o epson.toml https://codeberg.org/atufi/reinkpy/raw/branch/main/reinkpy/epson.toml
python3 parse_devices.py -Ta 192.168.178.29 -s XP-205 -p epson_print_conf.pickle # use your default IP address and printer model as default settings for the GUI
pyinstaller epson_print_conf.spec
When embedding epson_print_conf.pickle, the created program does not have options and starts with the default IP address and printer model defined in the build phase.
As mentioned in the documentation, PyInstaller supports Windows, MacOS X, Linux and other UNIX Operating Systems. It creates an executable file which is only compatible with the operating system that is used to build the asset.
This repository includes a Windows epson_print_conf.exe executable file which is automatically generated by a GitHub Action. It is packaged in a ZIP file named epson_print_conf.zip and uploaded into the Releases folder.
Within a report in repo https://codeberg.org/atufi/reinkpy there is an interesting attachment which includes an extensive XML database of Epson model features.
The program parse_devices.py transforms this XML DB into the dictionary that epson_print_conf.py can use. It is also able to accept the TOML input format used by reinkpy in epson.toml, if the -T
option is used.
Here is a simple procedure to download the devices.xml DB and run parse_devices.py to search for the XP-205 model and produce the related PRINTER_CONFIG dictionary to the standard output:
curl -o devices.xml https://codeberg.org/attachments/147f41a3-a6ea-45f6-8c2a-25bac4495a1d
python3 parse_devices.py -i -m XP-205
Same procedure, processing the epson.toml file:
curl -o epson.toml https://codeberg.org/atufi/reinkpy/raw/branch/main/reinkpy/epson.toml
python3 parse_devices.py -T -i -m XP-205
After generating the related printer configuration, epson_print_conf.py shall be manually edited to copy/paste the output of parse_devices.py within its PRINTER_CONFIG dictionary. Alternatively, the program is able to create a pickle configuration file (check the -p
lowercase option), which the other programs can load (with the -P
uppercase option and in addition with the optional -O
flag).
The -m
option is optional and is used to filter the printer model in scope. If the produced output is not referred to the target model, use part of the model name as a filter (e.g., only the digits, like parse_devices.py -i -m 315
) and select the appropriate model from the output.
Program usage:
usage: parse_devices.py [-h] [-m PRINTER_MODEL] [-T] [-l LINE_LENGTH] [-i] [-d] [-t] [-v] [-f] [-e]
[-c CONFIG_FILE] [-s DEFAULT_MODEL] [-a HOSTNAME] [-p PICKLE_FILE] [-I] [-N]
[-A] [-G] [-S] [-M]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m PRINTER_MODEL, --model PRINTER_MODEL
Filter printer model. Example: -m XP-205
-T, --toml Use the Reinkpy TOML input format instead of XML
-l LINE_LENGTH, --line LINE_LENGTH
Set line length of the output (default: 120)
-i, --indent Indent output of 4 spaces
-d, --debug Print debug information
-t, --traverse Traverse the XML, dumping content related to the printer model
-v, --verbose Print verbose information
-f, --full Generate additional tags
-e, --errors Add last_printer_fatal_errors
-c CONFIG_FILE, --config CONFIG_FILE
use the XML or the Reinkpy TOML configuration file to generate the configuration;
default is 'devices.xml', or 'epson.toml' if -T is used
-s DEFAULT_MODEL, --default_model DEFAULT_MODEL
Default printer model. Example: -s XP-205
-a HOSTNAME, --address HOSTNAME
Default printer host name or IP address. (Example: -a 192.168.1.87)
-p PICKLE_FILE, --pickle PICKLE_FILE
Save a pickle archive for subsequent load by ui.py and epson_print_conf.py
-I, --keep_invalid Do not remove printers without write_key or without read_key
-N, --keep_names Do not replace original names with converted names and add printers for all
optional names
-A, --no_alias Do not add aliases for same printer with different names and remove aliased
printers
-G, --no_aggregate_alias
Do not aggregate aliases of printers with same configuration
-S, --no_same_as Do not add "same-as" for similar printers with different names
-M, --no_maint_level Do not add "Maintenance required levelas" in "stats"
Generate printer configuration from devices.xml or from Reinkpy TOML
The program does not provide printer_head_id and Power off timer.
Suppose ET-4800 ia a printer already defined in the mentioned attachment with valid data, that you want to integrate.
curl -o devices.xml https://codeberg.org/attachments/147f41a3-a6ea-45f6-8c2a-25bac4495a1d
python3 parse_devices.py -m ET-4800 -p epson_print_conf.pickle
python3 ui.py -P epson_print_conf.pickle
or (operating epson.toml):
curl -o epson.toml https://codeberg.org/atufi/reinkpy/raw/branch/main/reinkpy/epson.toml
python3 parse_devices.py -T -m ET-4800 -p epson_print_conf.pickle
python3 ui.py -P epson_print_conf.pickle
If you also want to create an executable program:
pyinstaller epson_print_conf.spec
find_printers.py can be executed via python find_printers.py
and prints the list of the discovered printers to the standard output. It is internally used as a library by ui.py.
