Paxar 9800 Series - Manual (Page 75)

Reloading the Firmware B-3
Configure your /etc/bootptab file to specify the Ethernet address of the print
server and the name of the load file (XJET.BIN). Make sure that your file
protection allows general access to the directory that contains the load file. The
exact format of the file
/etc/bootptab varies widely, so you will need to refer to your UNIX system
documentation for details. A typical /etc/bootptab file entry might be:
x c 2 : h t = e t h e r n e t : h a = 0 0 4 0 1 7 0 0 c 9 5 3 : \
i p = 1 9 2 . 1 8 9 . 2 0 7 . 3 : b f = / u s r / X J E T . B I N :
Now log into the print server remote console using TELNET or the serial port and
execute the following commands:
S E T L O A D S O F T W A R E " p a t h n a m e "
S E T L O A D E N A B L E
where unixhost-ip address is the IP address of the UNIX load host and pathname is
the full path name for the XJET.BIN file (e.g., /tftpboot/XJET.BIN). Be sure to
put the path name in quotes and remember that UNIX names are case-sensitive.
Also, make sure that your file protection allows general access to the boot
directory.
When you type a CTRL-D to exit the remote console, the file XJET.BIN will then be
loaded into the print server. The red TEST LED will blink during the load process
and will go out when the process is complete.
If the red LED does not go out after about two minutes, check to make sure that
you correctly entered all parameters and that your network connections are good.
Power the printer off and then on again, enter the
S E T L O A D E N A B L E command, and
then type EXIT to exit the remote console and retry the download.

To download from a NetWare server, first copy the file XJET.BIN into the \login
directory on your SYS partition (SYS:\LOGIN). Using the \login directory will
eliminate any potential file protection problems.
Connect to the print server remote console and enter the following commands in
response to Local> prompt.
