3 Firmware update The printer's various functions are controlled by software that resides in the printer, also known as firmware. From time to time, firmware updates from Hewlett-Packard become available. These updates increase the printer's functionality and enhance its features. Firmware updates can be downloaded from HP's Web site (http://www.hp.com/go/graphic-arts/) and installed in your printer using the printer's Embedded Web Server. To access the Embedded Web Server from any computer, see Check printer status on page 5. In the Embedded Web Server, select the Setup tab and then Firmware update. Follow the on-screen instructions to download the firmware file and store it on your hard disk. Then select the downloaded file and click Update. If you experience very slow progress while uploading the firmware file to the printer, the reason could be that you are using a proxy server. In that case, try bypassing the proxy server and accessing the Embedded Web Server directly. ● In Internet Explorer 6 for Windows, go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings, and select the Bypass proxy server for local addresses check box. Alternatively, for more precise control, click the Advanced button and add the printer's IP address to the list of exceptions, for which the proxy server is not used. ● In Firefox 3.0 for Windows, go to Tools > Options > Network > Connection > Settings, and select the Direct connection to the Internet check box. Alternatively, when the Manual proxy configuration check box is selected, add the printer's IP address to the list of exceptions, for which the proxy server is not used. ● In Firefox 2.0 for Linux, go to Edit > Preferences > Network > Connection > Settings, and select the Direct connection to the Internet check box. Alternatively, when the Manual proxy configuration check box is selected, add the printer's IP address to the list of exceptions, for which the proxy server is not used.
