Ricoh D0B4 GS1227

Preparation

• If the SD card is blank, copy the entire "romdata" folder onto the SD card.
• If the card already contains the "romdata" folder, copy the "D0B4" folder onto the card.

If the card already contains folders up to "D0B4", copy the necessary firmware files (e.g. D0B4xxxx.fwu) into this folder.

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

    • In the lower row, a progress bar is displayed in ten steps. (The more *, the more the progress.)
    • This screen is displayed when all selected firmware modules are to be updated. "Printer" in the second row shows that the module updated last is the printer. (When more than one were updated simultaneously, only the module that was updated last is displayed.)

    • When the power supply is switched OFF during firmware update, update is interrupted, and the power is switched ON again, normal operation cannot be guaranteed.
    • To guarantee operation, an update error continues to be displayed until update is successful.
    - In this case, insert the SD card again, switch the power ON, and continue download of firmware from the SD card automatically.
    - The PS3 firmware program is included in the preinstalled PDF firmware. In the default state, although the PS3 firmware program is hidden in the disabled state, the function is enabled by installing the PS3 card. (The program installed in the PS3 card is a dongle (key) for enabling the PS3 function).
    - Due to the above specification, the self-diagnosis result report shows the ROM module number / software version of the PDF firmware at the PS location.
