Appendix C Reloading the Print / FAX Server Firmware General The firmware on the Print/Fax server is stored in flash memory. This means that you can upgrade the firmware by downloading the appropriate update file. To get the latest firmware update, visit the Brother Solutions web site at http://solutions.brother.com/ The Print / Fax server supports multiple MFC models so when inserted into the machine the version of the NC-9100h hardware is checked against the firmware of your machine. If the firmware for your NC-9100h has been superseded with a later version of firmware for your model a message is displayed on the LCD. Please update your firmware. Some software versions that we provide will automatically factory reset your Print/Fax server parameters. We try to avoid doing this. However, if we add a significant new feature to our Print/Fax server, it can result in the Print/Fax server being factory reset. Because of this, we STRONGLY recommend that you make a note of the current Print/Fax server configuration before you upgrade. To do this, print out a configuration page. For more information, see Resetting the Print/Fax Sever back to factory settings (Test Switch) on page 13-4. There are three methods of upgrading the firmware in your Brother Print/Fax server: 1 Use the BRAdmin Professional utility (Recommended) 2 Use the FTP protocol (Recommended if running on Macintosh or Unix network) 3 Use another system (such as a Novell or Unix system to send the new firmware file to the Print/Fax server).
