Changing the File Destination

If you have the optional EM and you wish to change the destination of a single
file, click

Destination

. The User Files dialog box opens. See Figure 75.

Select

Printer Flash

or

EM

to specify the new destination.

NOTE:

Bundle files (archives that contain multiple files, usually with a

.pff

extension) cannot have their destinations changed. Files within
bundle files will download to the printer’s flash memory, the EM, or
both, depending on their original location.

Restoring Configurations and Flash Files

Whenever a printer downloads a program (firmware) file, the configurations
and flash memory are erased. You can choose whether or not to restore the
configurations and/or flash memory to what was previously loaded. Check or
uncheck the Restore Config check box for configurations and/or the Restore
Flash check box for flash files. By default, the configurations and flash
memory will restore.

IMPORTANT

If you uncheck Restore Config or Restore Flash, the configurations or
flash memory will erase when you initiate a program file download.

NOTE:

If a download fails due to a power interrupt or a severed connection, the
configurations and flash files will be lost and will not restore. You can
still restore the printer using the recovery file, but only if Restore Config
and/or Restore Flash was checked. See “Recovery File” on page 104.

If you are downloading a program file and flash files, the Flash Files and
Restore Flash check boxes will be checked. The flash files will restore, but
they will be overwritten if the new flash files you are downloading have the
same name.
