Download the Files
After you define Download files in your database, you must download them to
your printer for them to affect the active print state.
NOTE: Each emulation used by the printer has its own list of valid flash files it
can use. Refer to the appropriate
Programmer’s Reference Manual
for details about valid flash files.
To begin the download process, select a printer or a folder containing printers
and select
Applications File Download , or click the (file download)
icon. The File Download dialog box opens and displays a list of all the printers
that you selected in the printer database. See Figure 73.
NOTE: If you later select a different printer or folder in the printer database
and the File Download dialog box is still open, click
Update List to
update the list of printers.
Figure 73. File Download
The following are the download options for each printer:
Firmware: Check this box to download the printer firmware (program file).
Restore Config: Check this box to restore the configurations that were in the
printer once the Program File download has been completed.
Restore Flash: Check this box to restore the flash files that were in the
printer before the Program File was downloaded.
Config File: Check this box to download a new configuration file.
Flash Files: Check this box to download additional flash files.
For each printer listed, various combinations of these operations can be
executed. Some combinations are mutually exclusive. For example, PNE
does not allow you to simultaneously preserve the printer’s configurations and
download a new configuration file to the same printer (you cannot check both
Restore Config and Config File for the same printer). Similarly, you cannot
restore configurations or flash files unless you are downloading new program
files.
NOTE: You can double-click a field name (e.g., Firmware, Config File, etc.) to
check or uncheck the check boxes for all displayed printers at once.
