Firmware Update

Before You Begin…

An SD card is a precision device, so always observe the following precautions when handling SD cards:

  • Always switch the machine off before inserting an SD card. Never insert the SD card into the slot with the power on.
  • When the power is switched on, never remove the SD card from the service slot.
  • Never switch the machine off while the firmware is downloading from the SD card.
  • Store SD cards in a safe location where they are not exposed high temperature, high humidity, or exposure to direct sunlight.
  • Always handle SD cards with care to avoid bending or scratching them. Never drop an SD card or expose it to other shock or vibration.

Keep the following points in mind while you are using the firmware update software:

  • “Upload” means to send data from the machine to the SD card, and “download” means to send data from the SD card to the machine.
  • To select an item on the LCD screen, press the appropriate key on the operation panel, or press the appropriate number key on the 10-key pad of the operation panel.
  • Before starting the firmware update procedure, always make sure that the machine is disconnected from the network to prevent a print job for arriving while the firmware update is in progress.

Firmware Update Procedure

Note:
Before beginning the following, first confirm which firmware version(s) are currently installed in the machine with SP7-801-255.

-SD Card Preparation-
  1. Format an SD card with, for example, SD Formatter v1.1.
  2. Create a “romdata” folder on the card.
  3. Create the following folders within the “romdata” folder: D067, D068, D069, D072.
  4. Download the firmware from the server and store the files in the folder with the corresponding model code on the SD card.
    Example:
    File D067550B should be stored in the "D067" folder, whereas files D4685528B, D4685540A, and D4685525B should be stored in the "D468" folder.
-Firmware Update-

Note:
Do not put multiple machine firmware programs on the same SD card. Copy the only model firmware you want.

  1. Turn off the main power switch.
  2. If the machine is connected to a network, disconnect the network cable from the copier.
  3. Remove the interface cover
  4. With the label on the SD card facing the rear side of the machine, insert the SD card into the slot 2 on the controller box. Slowly push the SD card into the slot so it locks in place.
  5. Make sure the SD card is locked in place. (To remove the SD card, push it in to unlock the spring lock and then release it so it pops out of the slot.)
  6. Switch the main power switch on. After about 5 seconds, the LCD will display “Please wait…” Then, about 60 seconds later, the LCD will display “Program UpDate Menu P.01” on the first line and the name of the firmware on the second line (e.g. System/Copy).
  7. Press the "OK" key to select a module.
    • To scroll through the menus, press the ▲ ▼ keys [A].
    To view the firmware version, press the right key. "ROM" is the information on the current firmware. "NEW" is the information on the firmware in the SD card.
    • To return to the menu, press the ◄ key.
    • To select the module, press the OK key.
    • To scroll through the module name, the serial number, and the version, press the key ◄ or ► key.
    • If you wish to install the following firmware simultaneously, press the START key. The scroll keys can be used to confirm that this firmware has been selected (highlighted with a dark background). [Engine, FCU, Scanner, Printer, Printer Font, Security Module]
    • When you have selected a module, the text lines are highlighted, and the "Verify"
    key and the "Update" key are displayed.
  8. Select a module and press the "Update" key.
    Do NOT press the "Verify" key.
  9. The firmware update program starts and the message "Loading" is displayed.
    • The update will begin, and then will take a few minutes to complete. The LCD will initially display, “Updating… ***---------.”
    • When the update is completed, the LCD display will change to “Update done” or “Updated / Power Off On.”
  10. Check that the message "Update Done" is displayed.
-Confirmation-
  1. Turn the main power switch off and on.
    • The LCD will display “Please wait…” for about 60 seconds, after which it will return to the “Program UpDate Menu” screen.
  2. Repeat Steps 1-8 above until all firmware updates are complete.
  3. Turn the main power switch off.
  4. Remove the SD card from the lower slot on the controller by pushing on the card to release the spring lock.
