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

.

Ensure that FTP Enabled is set to yes. To check this parameter, browse to

the print server and select Admin | Network Settings | Detailed View |

TCP/IP Network.

Caution!

The objective of this example is to upgrade a print server to firmware

version 7.00.

The description below from a typical Windows session uses the following

examples:

• Print server model: AXIS 5900
• IP address of print server: 10.13.4.105
• New firmware version name: 5900p_v2_7_00.bin
• Location of firmware and upgrade procedure: c:\Axis

Be careful not to interrupt the file transfer. If the transfer is interrupted, the print server may

have to be re-initialized by your dealer.
