a. Method A – On-Site Scheduled Update
The On-site Scheduled Update method ensures that the device
always has the latest version of firmware installed. After a one-time
setup by a service technician, the imageRUNNER ADVANCE
machine automatically downloads and installs new firmware as it
becomes available. No further technician visits are required to
update firmware.
b. Method B – Remote Update
The Remote Update method enables the dealership to arrange a
scheduled firmware download to the imageRUNNER ADVANCE
from the UGW, or it provides the option for a service technician to
visit the site and upgrade the most recent firmware at the machine.
