INITIALIZING RESEND UPGRADE This message appears from the time the device has finished reprogramming the DIMM until the device reinitializes. This message appears (in English only) if the firmware update fails because the RFU process is interrupted.

Print jobs that are sent to the device while an update is in process do not interrupt the update.
All HP LaserJet devices leave the factory with the most recent firmware version installed. If a remote
firmware update fails in an MS Windows operating system, the .RFU file must be resent.
If a remote firmware update fails in a Macintosh operating system, contact support from an HP Customer
Care Center.
The following table lists possible reasons for the failure of a remote firmware update and the corrective
action required for each situation.
Table 7-8
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/

.
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

Table 7-9
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
