During programming process, the backlight on the printer's LCD goes off, and Erase xxxxxx and Write xxxxxx will be indicated alternately on the LCD. After the firmware update is completed, the printer will re-start automatically. DO NOT TURN OFF THE PRINTER DURING THESE PROCESSES. If the Data LED does not stop blinking after about two minutes, check to make sure that you correctly entered all parameters and that your network connections are good. Then power the print server/printer off and then on again, to retry the download. If you encounter problems upgrading the firmware and you find that the network portion of the printer no longer functions, you should try re-programming the print server by using the COPY command from the DOS prompt of your PC. To do this, connect a parallel cable between your PC and printer and use the command COPY filename LPT1:/B (where filename is the new firmware file). APPENDIX A - 6
