SOURCE: Dell 946 AIO printer won't stop beeping after firmware update attempt

I just experienced this problem today. The beeping means that when you tried to update the firmware it damaged the printer internally. I would have to assume there is some kind of chip in there that can be flashed and it got cooked by the firmware update. Dell is sending me a new one.

Hi,
As you have already worked with Tech support at Dell, they may have exploited all the options but do try the following steps and tell me if that worked
1. DIsconnect you printer from the computer

1. Press the down arrow button until Maintenance is highlighted and press the Select button.
   
   
2. Press the down arrow button until Reset Defaults is hightlighted and press the Select button.
   
   
3. The printer displays a confirmation message. Highlight Yes and press the Select button

This would reset your printer to factory defaults.

2. Unistall the drivers using the following file
R166225 .zip from the link below
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/format.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&deviceid=9913&libid=40&releaseid=R166225&vercnt=1&formatcnt=0&SystemID=PRN_PHT_964&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&catid=-1&impid=-1
-> Save the file to desktop
->Double click to extract the file and see where the file is being extracted.
-> Go to extracted file folder ,right click on the file named setup and left click on run as adminstrator.
-> Follow on screen instructions and it would uinstall the printer

3. Restart your computer.
4. Install the drivers back on to the computer using the printer cd. Note :connect the printer only when prompted on the screen.

Once the printer has been installed , we need to update the printer aswell .

5. Download the printer firmware from the link below
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R114639&SystemID=PRN_PHT_964&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=9913&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=2&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=40&fileid=151153

6. Follow on screen instructions to install the same
7. Check if the printer works after this , otherwise its time for a new one.


Thanks
Mandeep

SOURCE: Cant scan via network?

DJSting... paperport can be used for network scanning, as it works with the dell 2335.  Now are you saying that this printer (the 1815) is limited?

Apparently the controller board needs to be replace.
Dell has agreed to do this, despite that the service period has expired.
