Appendix 3
Firmware Upgrading
There are many ways to upgrade or exchange printer’s firmware.
Use the most convenient way. You can either do it from host by
sending the file to the printer or by inserting a Flash/SRAM-card in
the memory card slot at the printer’s rear plate. There are 3 differ-
ent file types containing the firmware. The file types are related the
way of upgrade procedure. To obtain these files, go to “Firmware”
at one of the following home pages:
• Intermec Intranet: http://printer2.intermec.com
• Internet:
http://printer.intermec.com
File Description
File name
Type of file
mcsXXXX.bin This
.bin file contains the firmware kernel file
only.
To be sent on serial port to printer using a com-
munication program, for example HyperTermi-
nal, Printset.
mcsXXXX.uff This
.uff file contains the kernel and optional
instructions if necessary, images, files, etc.
To be stored on a Flash card or SRAM card.
mcsXXXX.net This .net file contains the kernel and header/
footer instructions.
To be sent via Ethernet to EasyLAN100i omter-
face boards installed in printers.
General Principles
• During upgrading, do not switch off the printer. Wait and follow
the prompts in the printer’s display.
• If changing firmware from IPL to Fingerprint, we recommend
to erase memory to factory setup setting [FORMAT "c:",A]
after the upgrade procedure is completed.
• Some update of Fingerprint may show the error “mcs: Error
during setup” at host terminal or “ERROR IN KERNEL CRC”
when using PC-software PrintSet. This just means that there
was an instruction that erased "c:" [FORMAT "c:",A]. This
is a normal condition! The error shows that no setup file
[.setup.saved] is detected on "c:". At next reboot the "rom:"
setup file is copied automatically into "c:" which gives printer a
factory setup setting.
