The following table lists possible reasons for the failure of a remote firmware update and the corrective action required for each situation. Table 6-2 Troubleshooting a firmware update failure Reason for firmware update failure Corrective action The .RFU file is corrupted. The device recognizes that the file is corrupted and rejects the update. Download the file again and send the new file to the device. Download the file from www.hp.com/go/ljp4010series_firmware and www.hp.com/go/ ljp4510series_firmware. The wrong device is contained in the .RFU file. The device recognizes the printer mismatch and rejects the update. Download the correct file and send it to the device. Download the file from www.hp.com/go/ ljp4010series_firmware and www.hp.com/go/ljp4510series_firmware. The upgrade was interrupted. See Table 6-3 Update messages on page 244. A flash hardware failure occurred. Although it is extremely unlikely, the device might have a hardware failure. Call technical support to address the problem (see the flyer that came with the device for a local telephone support list). Three messages appear during a normal update process; others (RESEND UPGRADE and RFU LOAD ERROR) appear only if the update process does not succeed. Table 6-3 Update messages Printer message Explanation RECEIVING UPGRADE This message appears from the time the device recognizes the beginning of an .RFU update until the time the device has verified the validity and integrity of the .RFU update. NOTE: If the remote firmware update process is interrupted before the firmware is downloaded (while RECEIVING UPGRADE appears on the control-panel display), the firmware file must be sent again. No message appears on the device control panel to indicate that the update was interrupted. PERFORMING UPGRADE This message appears while the device is actually reprogramming the firmware. NOTE: If power is lost during the flash DIMM update (while PERFORMING UPGRADE appears on the control-panel display), the update is interrupted and the message RESEND UPGRADE appears on the control-panel display. INITIALIZING This message appears from the time the device has finished reprogramming the DIMM until the device reinitializes. RESEND UPGRADE This message appears (in English only) if the firmware update fails because the RFU process is interrupted. It can also occur if firmware for accessories (such as the duplex unit or an output device becomes is corrupted. Perform another update by any means that is supported by the printer, regardless of the connection (network, parallel, or USB). RFU LOAD ERROR SEND RFU UPGRADE ON PARALLEL PORT This message appears (in English only) if the firmware update fails because the print-engine firmware is corrupted. If this message appears, the update must now be sent only by a computer that is attached to the parallel port of the device. NOTE: To verify that the firmware update succeeded, print a new configuration page from the control panel and verify that the firmware date code on the configuration page has changed. 244 Chapter 6 Engineering details ENWW
