1. Download the latest SureMark firmware update image file from the Web. The file
is:
v AIP46MC.HEX for Models TI1 and TI2
v AIP46MCH.HEX for Models TI3, TI4, TG3, and TG4. This file is also for
single-station printers with 512KB or 8MB of memory
v AIP46MCD.HEX for Models TI3, TI4, TG3, TG4, TF6, and TM6 with the 2-MB
memory option.
v For Model TI8, see the IBM Retail Store Solutions Web site at:
http://www.ibm.com/solutions/retail/store.
2.
Copy the latest SureMark firmware update image file to the C:\POS\BIN
directory. Because the file in the directory is more current than the old file, the
firmware will be automatically updated when the system is powered off and
back on.
3. To update the firmware manually, enter the following command to update the
SureMark firmware:
AIPFLD46.EXE -S slot_number -P port_number -F microcode_file [-Q]
where:
slot_number
SureMark slot number, usually = 1. The slot number must be specified
with decimal values only; hexadecimal values are not accepted.
port_number
SureMark port number specified with a decimal value, usually = 17
microcode_file
Either C:\POS\BIN\AIP46MC.HEX, C:\POS\BIN\AIP46MCH.HEX, or

-Q Quiet mode installation (no progress information)
4.
The SureMark flash update will take several minutes.
IBM Point-of-Sale device diagnostics
USB printers connected to one of the SurePOS 700 Series systems can use the
IBM Point-of-Sale Device Diagnostics to update the SureMark firmware. See IBM
SurePOS 700 Series: System Reference for more information on the IBM

Updating SureMark firmware using temporary RS-232 attachment
To use the firmware update diskettes to update SureMark firmware for
configurations that do not have a floppy diskette drive and PC display and
keyboard, you must provide a temporary RS-232 attachment to a host PC that does
have a floppy diskette drive.
Note: A 4610 firmware update diskette at V3.10 or greater is required to use this
utility.
Before starting the firmware update, you must obtain the following parts:
v RS-232 attachment cable, either 2 meters in length (P/N 86H2192) or 4 meters in
length (P/N 86H2195).
