C-8 Reloading the Firmware

Downloading through the Serial Port (All
Models Except Pony Print Server Plus)

The print server can be downloaded from a PC connected to
the serial port via the XMODEM protocol. To do this, first
make sure that you have Switch 1 in Console mode (OFF)
and that the PC can communicate successfully with the print
server using terminal emulation mode (for example, through
a program like QLII or PCTERM). Then type in the
following commands in response to the

Local>

prompt:

SET LOAD ENABLE

Type EXIT to exit console mode. The print server will then
reboot. You will get a series of messages displayed on the
terminal; press RETURN at any time and then type:

SET LOAD XMODEM

in response to the

Boot>

prompt. You will get the message

"You may begin your XModem transfer now." Set your PC
terminal emulation program to send a file using the
XMODEM protocol with the file name

XJET.BIN

. The

print server will then download the

XJET.BIN

file.
