Upgrading using FTP

To upgrade over the network using FTP you will need a file with the new print
server firmware. The name of this file is in the form

product_version.bin

.

You can use any of the previously mentioned methods to obtain the new file.
You must assign an IP address to the AXIS 540+/AXIS 560before you can use
this upgrading method.

Caution!

The objective of this example is to upgrade a print server with firmware version
6.41 to firmware version 6.43.

This description from Windows XP uses the following examples:

• Print server model: AXIS 540+
• IP address of print server: 10.13.4.105
• New firmware version name: 540p_v2_6_43.bin
• Location of firmware and upgrade procedure: C:\Axis (Create a new

directory named e.g. ‘Axis’ on your hard drive and download the
firmware to that location).

Be careful not to interrupt the file transfer. If the transfer is interrupted, the AXIS 540+/AXIS

560 may have to be re-initialized by your dealer.
