11. At the command prompt type:

C:

<Enter>

cd \download

<Enter>

filename.exe -n xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

<Enter>

where

filename

.exe is the file name you noted in step 8 and

xxx

.

xxx

.

xxx

.

xxx

is the IP address of the printer. This command takes the

file on the hard drive and copies it as a binary file into the flash memory
on the printer controller board.

NOTE:

If the software does not download, use the Firmware Download Utility
(page 158).

IMPORTANT

Do not interrupt the downloading process once it has started.
Interrupting a download will leave the flash memory on the controller
PCBA incompletely loaded, and the printer may not boot up.

While the file is copied into memory, the printer LCD informs you of the
load process and status.

13. When the new software has successfully loaded into flash memory and

the printer has reset itself, set the printer power switch to O (Off).

14. Remove the CD from the host computer and store it with the printer.

15. If required, reconnect the data input cable(s) to the printer.

16. Set the printer power switch to | (On).

17. Using the configuration printout(s) you made in step 1 on page 160,

restore the printer configurations.
