Phaser 3635MFP Software Upgrade Process 

Overview 

 

The Software Upgrade feature allows the customer to upgrade the machine software as 
requested by a Xerox Customer Support Center Representative, without needing a 
Customer Service Representative to be present.  

When should I upgrade the software?  

Xerox is continually seeking to improve their products and a software revision may 
become available to improve functionality on the machine.  The most recent software for 
your machine is typically posted on the Xerox.com website.  

How do I upgrade the software?  

NOTE: 

Upgrading software will delete any current jobs in the machine print queue 

and prevent further jobs from printing until the upgrade has completed. If you wish to 
preserve these jobs, allow them to complete before upgrading your software. All 
configured network settings and installed options will be retained by the machine after 
the Software Upgrade process. 

There are 3 methods for upgrading the software on the machine:  

1.  Manual upgrade over a network connection using CentreWare Internet Services 

(via a web browser).  

2.  Manual upgrade directly at the machine with a USB flash drive connected to the 

USB port on the front of the machine  

3.  Manual upgrade using Print File Submission.  

 

1.  Manual Upgrade using CentreWare Internet Services 

 

If your machine is connected to the network, it is possible to upgrade the software 
through CentreWare Internet Services.  The machine will need to be configured for 
TCP/IP and HTTP.

2.  Manual Upgrade using a USB flash drive 

 

You may also upgrade your machine by connecting a USB flash drive to the USB port at 
the front of the machine. This method is typically utilized if your machine does not have a 
network connection or if a local machine upgrade is preferred.
