Flash Download Commands 
These commands are used to load firmware into the printer. 
The commands are listed in numerical order according to their hexadecimal codes. Each 
command is described and the hexadecimal, decimal, and ASCII codes are listed. 
There are three ways to enter the Download Mode. 
1.  Powering the printer up with DIP Switch 2 up. 
2.  While the printer is running normally, use the command Switch to Flash Download 
Mode, to leave normal operation and enter the Download Mode. 
3.  If the Flash if found corrupted during Level 0 diagnostics the Download Mode is 
automatically entered after the printer has reset.
