⚠️ Important Disclaimers

1. Warranty Void: Modifying your printer’s firmware will almost certainly void your warranty.
2. Risk of Bricking: If the firmware installation is interrupted (power loss, bad USB cable) or the wrong file is used, the printer can become a "brick" (unusable).
3. Region Locking: This process often involves switching the printer to a different region (usually Japan), which may change the cartridge model the printer accepts.
4. Legality: While common, modifying firmware violates the printer's End User License Agreement (EULA).
