FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD:
Get the latest version of firmware for your
Printer.
Two types of firmware files are
normally provided:
“.bin”
files and “.fbf”
files. “.fbf” files are loaded using the
Printer Toolbox.
NOTE: Using the “.fbf” file procedure is
an alternative method for downloading
firmware. See “Updating Firmware Using
“.bin” File” for the recommended
procedure using the “.bin” files.
Unit: Choose Both to download firmware
for both Printers at the same time or select
Top or Bottom to download firmware for that specific Printer.
WARNING : This procedure should only be performed by qualified service personnel. In some cases
firmware must be loaded using “Firmware Migration Tool”. If this process is not performed properly,
Printer is rendered inoperable.
Ink Usage
Allows you to monitor estimated amount of ink
left in each Ink Tank. Monitor ink use and
consumption and schedule Tank changes
(
saving down-time during a print run .)
NOTE: Ink Usage only works when a new
Ink Tank is installed and left in the Printer.
INK ESTIMATION MODE – Lets you
predetermine how much ink a given job may
use prior to printing a job. This is useful for
determining per piece costs. Job is sent to
Printer and loads, but does not print. Once job is loaded, click
“Refresh”
to show amount of ink ( by color ) that job will use.
Mode selection:
Off
– Feature is disabled.
Continuous – Ink Estimation Mode
continues running ( Printer will not print ),
until feature is turned
“OFF”
.
Single Pass – Ink Estimation Mode
runs once, then turns off. Printer will
then be ready to print.
Click
“Submit”
to activate Mode
setting selected.
NOTE: Estimating process takes as long as
job would take to print (
i.e., if job would take
1 hour to print, estimate will take 1 hour to
display
. Track progress on the Counter
located in the System Status window. )
