DEVICE FIRMWARE REVISION

Installation Instructions

NOTE: Please be aware that an update in some circumstances may require 10 minutes or more to complete.

You can send the firmware update to a device at any time; the device will wait for all I/O channels to become idle before cycling power.

Please print a configuration page prior to performing any firmware update. To print the configuration page:

1. Go to the printer's control panel.
2. Select the Reports menu.
3. Select the Configuration/Status Pages menu.
4. Select the Configuration Page option.
5. Select the Print.

On the printed Configuration page look in the section marked "Device Information" for the Firmware Datecode and Firmware Revision. The Firmware Datecode and Firmware Revision will look something like this:

• Firmware Datecode: 20170407
• Firmware Revision: 2403302_006075

The elapsed time for an update depends on the I/O transfer time as well as the time that it takes for the printer to reinitialize. The I/O transfer time depend on the speed of the host computer sending the update and the I/O method (USB or network).

The re-initialization time will depend on the specific hardware configuration of the printer, such as the number of EIO devices installed, the presence of external paper handling devices, and the amount of memory installed. Finally, any print jobs ahead of the firmware job in the queue will be printed before the update is processed.

NOTE: When the update process has completed the LaserJet will need to be rebooted. Once the printer is back online, print a Configuration Page and verify that the new firmware has been installed.

Additional information to know

The firmware file will be in the following file format "xxxxxxx.bdl" where "xxx" indicates the firmware file name and the ".bdl" is the files extension.

This file requires an interactive update method. You cannot update the printer using the traditional FTP, LPR or Port 9100 methods of upgrading. Please use one of the following methods listed below to update the firmware of this device.
