Why Update ?

Over the years I have found that (“IF”) your printer is working safe and normal then you should always ignore any update from the print manufacture..

Furthermore most of the time it’s in the manufacture interest and not the print owners..

You're right.

Fortunately the ET-8550 is an ecotank printer, so there is no risk of disabled possibility of aftermarket cartridges (chips refused) and other fun. If it would use cartridges and you are using refillables/aftermarket cartridges....watch out for firmware upgrades.
