Remote firmware update for UNIX systems For UNIX systems, any command method that delivers the .TAR file to the device is acceptable, including the following: 1. At the command prompt, type cp /home/yourmachine/FILENAME /dev/parallel>, where is the location of the .TAR file. 2. The download process begins and the firmware is updated on the device. This can take several minutes. Let the process finish without further interaction with the device or the computer. The messages described in the section Printer messages during the firmware update appear on the control panel. NOTE The device automatically turns off and then on again to activate the update; this can happen more than once. At the end of the update process, the READY message appears on the control panel. Do not turn off the device or interfere with the update until this message appears. 3.

This menu map can be compared with a menu map printed before the firmware update to determine what user settings have been added or changed in the new firmware.
