3. Upgrading via the Content Delivery System
CDS enables end-users to download and install the latest firmware via the
imageCLASS X device directly, without the need to download the firmware
package from an external device, transfer it to the imageCLASS X device,
and manually start the update.
CDS firmware delivery can be enabled via the Universal Gateway (UGW),
or set up on the local device in Service Mode. Firmware download via CDS
can also be set to automatically check for firmware periodically, or only
when the user requests the device to check.
Note:
•
Only field support personnel with access to Service Mode on the device
can enable CDS for local user control.
•
There is no updater user interface on the control panel for imageCLASS
X devices. All firmware update functions are performed through the
remote UI.
•
Some service-engineer-only functions are not available in the remote UI
in service mode. See the
imageCLASS X MF1538 Service Manual
for all
available CDS-related functions.
4. Upgrading via USB Memory Media
The imageCLASS X MF1538 firmware can be upgraded using a firmware
image stored on a separate USB storage media. Download the firmware
image from CDS on a separate computer, copy the firmware image to a
USB media, and insert the USB media into one of the USB ports on the
target device.
