NOTE: If you have asked for tabs but they don't appear on the folded jobs, open the cover and check that they are properly installed and that no problem has occurred. Update the firmware The printer's various functions are controlled by firmware that resides in the printer. From time to time firmware updates will be available from HP. These updates increase the printer's functionality, enhance its features, and may correct minor problems. IMPORTANT: You are strongly recommended to update the firmware periodically in order to take advantage of the latest developments. There are various ways of downloading and installing firmware updates; you can choose whichever you find most convenient. They can be divided into two categories: automatic and manual updates. NOTE: The firmware includes a set of the most commonly used paper presets. Extra paper presets can be downloaded separately. Automatic firmware updates Automatic firmware updates are a convenience that is possible with HP-connected printers. Your printer can automatically download the latest firmware release and install it for you. Important notes ● Your printer must be connected to the Internet; see Configure your connectivity on page 18. ● To configure automatic firmware updates, you can use the front panel or the Embedded Web Server; see Configure your connectivity on page 18. ● A firmware update package can be large; you may want to consider whether there are any implications for your network or Internet connection. ● A firmware update is downloaded in the background: the printer can be printing at the same time. However, it cannot be installed in the background: printing must stop. Manual firmware updates Manual firmware updates can be performed in the following ways: ● Using the Embedded Web Server, select the Setup tab and then Firmware update. Press Browse to select a firmware file (.fmw) that you have already downloaded to your own computer. ● Using the HP Designjet Utility under Windows, select the Admin tab and then Firmware Update. ● Using the HP Utility under Mac OS X, select Firmware Update. ● Using HP Web Jetadmin, with which you can make manual firmware updates or request automatic updates. 116 Chapter 9 Maintenance ENWW
