 Yo YouTube, what's up? Welcome back to Kenny's TV and in this video We're gonna be converting the epson work force 7840 into a sublimation printer And that's that big printer right there behind me So I'm gonna take you to the step-by-step process So if I went too fast or you missed a step don't be afraid of pause and rewind So that way you can hook up your printer correctly and then once I get the software set up I'm gonna go ahead and print out and actually heat press on to a blank t-shirt So stick around for the final results on that and also if you like this kind of content go ahead and subscribe Like drop a comment or a question. I'll be willing to answer those So pause in the video We'll get it right into it So the epson work force 7840 I'm gonna lift up the top tray. That's what we're gonna put the refillable cartridges in and We want to be using the original epson ink cartridges to take off the chips So I'm started with magenta Since that's the first one I grabbed And you want to be using the same color cartridge, so I'm taking the 802 magenta and you can see the Same size This will work right here So we're gonna take that chip off and place it on the refillable cartridge now The empty cartridge. There's a small nipple right there It needs to be shaving off so that way the chip can actually be placed right there using an exacto knife You can use a blade Box blade and will work something sharp and You just want to shave the nipple off. That's flushed Just keep in mind take your time. It's not a rush You don't want to be cutting your fingers up and I'm just making sure that the plastic is flush As much as possible Now I'm just gonna go ahead and take the tip of the blade and try to loosen the chip I just want to lift up lightly. I'm gonna try to take it off of my fingers nice Try one more time. All right, so if they stuck pretty good is use the tip of your blade and just lift up There it is and is that way the chip was on the original cartridge It's the same way you want to put it on the 802 refillable cartridge and You just want to angle from the top Because there's a groove at the top where you want to place a chip and there's two grooves That's going to hold the chip on the sides. They're left and right Also on these 802s you can remove that top part If this is easier for you to work with it's an option. If not, you can still have it attached and push in the Chip and they're not going to snap in so just take your time with this So you're going to use a little bit of force and the grooves on the sides of that it's going to hold the chip Especially on the left and the right side is It's where you're gonna be trying to push it in and just take your time And then once you get it on if you took off the top plastic part Just put it back on the cartridge and just a reminder if you change in the chips Make sure you're using the same colors. I'm just gonna fast forward this right here Get all the chip swap and We're going to be going on to the next step. So it's looking good Now if you buy the conversion kit the ink the cartridges to come with a syringe And it gots the attachment to the top Also, I want to be moving this clear Rubber seal and the front end where the chip is at on the refillable cartridge And that's we're gonna be filling up the ink at I'm gonna be starting with black Again, this is another option if you want to wear gloves if you have gloves you can wear them. I Just don't wear gloves and also if you have a microfiber towel That's good to have Close by so that way if you do happen to make a mess on the cartridge It's gonna be easy wipe and the goal right now is to fill up the ink More than halfway in the cartridge You don't want to fill it all the way up to the top You just want to get three fourths of it filled up and now explain in a few After I put some more ink in here, so we got it a little bit more than half right there I'm just going to push the rest of the ink back into the bottle if there's any leftovers remove The top portion and I'm just gonna use the same syringe Plug it into the hole and it's pulled up so that way What it does is we're priming the cartridge Taking all the air out so put back the attachment on and Continue filling up all the way to the top and you want to do this on each color cartridge The priming part and I just went ahead and did the second prime This is optional as well as you can see I just pull up and let it drop Just give a little push at the end and this is where the microfiber towel will come in handy I just want to make sure it's filled up all the way before There it is Use the same syringe Just pull the little access part This is not going to be perfect for everybody. So it is who's gonna get messy Got that cleaned up and what I'm gonna do is take the back Rubber seal right here is rubber plug and just plug it in where we was filling it up at in the front And if you ever got to refill it, that's where you're gonna take off the nipple and Go ahead and fast forward got all the ink did all the priming Okay, making sure all the chips are secured And that's what it should look like now the printer is on and the printer is calling for the ink So be careful placing these in and it's pretty self-explanatory. You just line up the colors The black the cyan, magenta, then the yellow and you can see they're fitting in Just like the original ink cartridges Now do keep in mind if you have to take them out for whatever reason to refill them Pull straight up and hold that tab So go ahead and shut it down and it's going to give you automatic printout Congratulations Yes, that's the lead installed. Yes, it's been printed so One hand and print out with a quick heat press looks like The results is here. There it is give it another press and this is the final results y'all The printer has been converted the results. I like them. I'm impressed. I gave it two thumbs up The video was edited through the time. It actually took me about 40 to 45 minutes overall and Some people are gonna get it done faster a little bit faster And some is might take a little bit more time. So it all depends on your speed and also distractions And the edited part on the software All you got to do is go to epson.com backslash support And then you can scroll down and click on support and then type in WF 7840 It's gonna get the printer Download the recommended one with the drivers and everything and I skipped that part because you know some people they want The emails and support and then some people don't want that kind of stuff So but I am gonna come with a video to actually set up the software Know everybody's different everybody got their own style and tastes, but thanks for sticking around Catch you on the next video and we'll get right into it. Peace
