Upgrade Printer
Many of the printers that CentreWare DP supports are equipped with Flash
ROM on the Main Controller card and/or the Network Interface Card.
Flash ROM enables you to upgrade the “firmware” of your printer without
having to physically remove and replace the ROMs.
You should consult your printer documentation to determine if your printer
is equipped with Flash ROM and on which card. Also, some printer
models supported by CentreWare DP may require the upgrade printer
function only be performed while connected to the serial or parallel port of
the printer.
PROCEDURE
This procedure requires special upgrade file(s) for each type of printer.
You may obtain these files either from the Xerox Web Site
(www.xerox.com), or on a floppy disk (for NIC Card upgrades). Obtain
the upgrade file for your printer, copy it to a workstation hard drive, and
record the path (drive and directory) to which it was copied.
NOTE: In Step 3 below, if the Upgrade Printer entry is disabled (grayed-
out) the selected printer requires direct connection (serial or parallel port) to
be upgraded.
1. Start CentreWare DP from your workstation.
2. Select the Tools menu.
3. Select the Upgrade Printer entry.
4. The Upgrade Printer process will start and request the path and name
of the upgrade file. Be sure to check the Printer radio button in the
upgrade field. Enter the path of the upgrade file and click OK.
5. CentreWare DP will copy the file to the printer. Once the upgrade has
been completed, the printer will reset and a page will print showing the
new version of firmware and that the upgrade completed successfully.
6. Repeat this procedure if you are upgrading both the Main Controller
and the Network Interface Card firmware, making sure to choose the
Network radio button in the upgrade field.
