Section 8: Firmware Upgrades
The purpose of this Technical Update (dated 11/06/2002) was to announce the release of the
Persona C16 EPROM Version 1.0.7, as described below.
• Improvement No. 1: This new version addresses the issues relating to the printing of
resin cards in the Batch Mode. (Technician Note: Periodically, the Printer would reset
itself due to issues with the previous Firmware. The new Firmware corrects these issues
and increases reliability when printing resin cards in the Batch Mode.)
• Improvement No. 2: This new version also addresses the issues relating to the variance
in where the Printer would begin encoding during the Magnetic Encoding process.
(Technician Note: This variance had created the potential for incorrectly encoded cards.
This version corrects the variance and increases reliability during this Encoding process.)
The purpose of this Technical Update (dated 04/29/2003) was to provide information on a
Firmware improvement to the Persona C16 Card Printer. The ECO C04008 has been
released. No action is required. This is for your information only.
• Firmware Improvement: The ribbon-queuing improvement makes the ribbon handling
more robust to ensure the maximum number of prints from our color ribbons.
