Updating the microFlash

Using the Transmit pull-down menu, click on Update firmware when a
new version of the microFlash has been developed. Update firmware
allows you to add enhancements as they are developed without ever
having to purchase a new printer. It will also update the new
configuration you choose before you click on Update.

Call your O’Neil representative (949) 458-0500 to find out more about
future developments.

Tip: When you Update, any data, including receipt and label formats and
graphics, stored in the printer’s memory are deleted.
