Your Printer’s Operating
System
20—Chapter 2.1
Your Printer’s Operating System
Your printer’s Operating System software
resides inside the printer and is referred to as
printer firmware. The firmware is stored in
flash ROM.
Updating new firmware is performed via one
of the printer’s interfaces. When the firmware
is downloaded to the printer, the printer recog-
nizes the nature of the code and replaces the
older firmware with the new one that is down-
loaded. After downloading, the printer restarts
with the new firmware resident and active.
Firmware Updates
The
Software Utilities
CD-ROM contains the latest printer firmware available
when the CD-ROM was made. During first-time printer setup you should
install the firmware included on the CD-ROM.
From time to time, firmware updates are created to enhance or expand printer
performance. Check our website at printer.konicaminolta.net/support to find
the most current version of your printer firmware. If there’s a newer version
than the one on your CD, you can download it from the website.
When to Upgrade/Upgrade Verification
To determine if the printer’s firmware needs to be updated, turn on the printer
and note the version number of the System Release printed under Printer
Information on the Startup Page. If the version number is equal to or higher
than the version that you’re considering for download, you do not need to
update the printer’s firmware.
You should install the firmware file on the
Software Utilities
CD-ROM
during first-time printer setup, or download and install a newer version
of the firmware file from our website (printer.konicaminolta.net/
support) if it is available.
Your printer’s current firmware version can also be viewed in the
Printer Information section of the Configuration page displayed in
PageScope Light.
The printer firmware on our website is identified by version number.
What’s Flash ROM?
Flash ROM is nonvolatile
memory. When the power
is switched off, this kind of
memory holds the data
previously stored.
