DO NOT INTERRUPT THE DOWNLOAD
The firmware file will be transferred to the pr
inter. It is self verifying and will not
be activated if it is incorrect. The download program is not aware of the
verification process and assumes it loaded correctly.
You MUST wait at least 10 seconds after the download program says it’s
done as the printer takes 5 or 10 more seconds to finish writing the update to
flash. The easiest way to tell when the printer is done is to press the “Get
Printer Information” button after the download and when the printer
responds it’s done.
