37. At the DOS prompt on the computer type, for example:
123456.exe -pb
<Return>
where
123456.exe
is the emulation file you noted in step 30
(for an emulation on multiple diskettes) or in step 34 (for an
emulation on a single diskette). This command expands the
emulation file, then copies it as a binary file into the flash
memory in the printer.
NOTE: If you are downloading the file using the LPT2 port on the
computer, enter the following DOS command, for example:
123456.exe -pb2
<Return>
38. If there is an existing emulation in the selected virtual printer,
you will be asked to confirm the erasure of the existing
emulation. The message on the printer LCD will be similar to
the following:
CLEAR PGL?
PRESS ENTER
To confirm the erasure, press the ENTER key on the printer
control panel. Otherwise, press the CANCEL key on the control
panel to abort the operation; the printer will then reboot.
39. While the file is being copied into memory, the printer LCD
informs you of the load process and status. (Messages are
listed in table following this section.)
40. Wait until the new program has successfully loaded into printer
memory.
41. If you have another emulation to install, go back to step 17.
42. If you have any additional software to install (logo, form, TIFF,
setup, or font files), continue with step 43. If you have no
additional software to install, skip to step 55.
43. Switch to the virtual printer where you want to download the
new software (also known as selecting the flash memory
partition) and press the ENTER key on the printer control
panel.
44. Set the printer power switch to O (off).
