For Mac:
Updating the fi rmware is a simple operation but one which, if not properly completed, can result in your printer breaking down.
Before any update, please contact the Badgy team, we will be able to guide you on whether it is advisable to carry out this operation. In
general, such updates are only required in the event of a problem or malfunction that has been clearly identifi ed by your Badgy reseller.
Updates can be downloaded from the website
www.badgy.com
:
Go to
Drivers & Support
, then select your printer model.
Go to
Drivers & Firmware
, then click on the fi le for the corresponding fi rmware.
Accept the download then save the fi le in a directory on your hard drive.
Then go to
System Preferences
,
Print & Scan
,
Badgy
,
Options & Supplies
,
Utility
, and click on
Open
Printer Utility
. The
Badgy Card Printer
window will open. All you need to do is click on
Upgrade
.
Select the folder where you extracted the downloaded fi le and open the fi rmware fi le (.fi rm).
When prompted by the program, follow the instructions in order to select the printer and
start the operation. The fi rmware transfer is in progress.
After about thirty seconds, the fi rmware has transferred to the printer and the operation is complete.
Never interrupt the transfer between computer and printer during the download phase (powering off the printer or computer, unplugging
a cable). This would result in a complete inability to restart the printer. Should such an incident occur, please contact your Badgy reseller,
who will have to replace your printer’s processor board.
You can check the Firmware version by clicking on Identify.
If the printer is not showing a "
READY
" status, this means that the update has not been carried out correctly or, possibly, that the printer is not working
properly. Check the connection cables and run a new update.
However, if you experience problems while updating the fi rmware with the Badgy Print Center, please contact your Badgy reseller who can provide a new fi le to install
the fi rmware.
Once the update is complete, your equipment is ready for use.
