Connect your DOS PC (LPT1:) to the parallel port on the printer. Start from no. 3 in

Troubleshooting
It is necessary to repeat the entire procedure if an error occurs during the download.
This is indicated by a corresponding message on the display. It may be that not all
fault messages can be shown on the display. In this case, the operating system of
your PC displays an error message such as “Write error on device”.
“Download.fdf” stands for any firmware identification number (i.e. 4 8 042X.FDF).

Loading optional
firmware using remote
printer
To update a remotely connected printer, the firmware has to be uploaded via FTP:
– Put the printer into “boot-mode” by pressing the keys 1 , 4 and Setup while
switching the printer on.
– Unpack the archive containing the firmware.
– Open a DOS prompt in the directory where you have unpacked the archive.
– Start the FTP client by typing "ftp" and execute the following commands:
1. Open <ip-address> (no login required)
2. binary
3. put <firmware>
Description:
<ip address>: the IP address asssigned to the print server
<firmware>: the firmware file e.g. 70319.fdf
– The printer is displaying the progress of the update and initializes when finished.
– Quit the FTP client by typing "bye".
You may use any FTP client of your choice, just ensure that the transfer mode is set
to "binary".
This description applies to TallyGenicom printer servers. Depending on the used print
server the above procedure may vary or don't work at all.
Alternatively you may use tools like PFD.EXE to update the firmware. This program
can be found at the manufacturers web site.
