Check for Product Updates (Software Downloads Site)
The Check for Product Updates URL (also known as the Software Downloads Site) allows
you to access the Update Server to view and manually download all available updates for
E-8100 System and User Software. You can access Check for Product Updates by copying and
pasting a unique URL into a web browser from a client computer. (For details, see
.)

The list that displays when you access Check for Product Updates may include:
• Updates that are unavailable through System Updates and/or are not approved for all
users.
• Updates that may already be installed on some E-8100 print servers. To help you choose
the updates to download, compare the list displayed with the E-8100 print server’s
Configuration Page > Updates log.
Check for Product Updates is especially useful if your E-8100 cannot access the Internet, is
behind a firewall, or is otherwise unable or not configured to seek and accept automatic
updates from the Update Server (for instance, if you do not want—or the E-8100 is unable—
to take advantage of the auto-download/auto-installation/auto-notification features available
through System Updates).
For a detailed procedure, see
“To install updates using Check For Product Updates”
on page 106 before using Check for
Product Updates.
