1. INSTALLING THE UPDATE DATA TO THE
FACSIMILE EQUIPMENT
The facsimile equipment is available in two types--one with a flash ROM and the other with a
masked ROM. For the equipment with a flash ROM, if the program version is updated or the main
PCB is replaced, install the update program onto the flash ROM on the main PCB.
The program installation requires a host computer satisfying the following requirements:
- CPU Pentium 75 or higher
- RAM 8MB or greater (16MB recommended for Windows® 95)
- OS Windows® 3.1/3.11 or Windows® 95/98
Connecting the facsimile equipment to your computer

(2) Make sure that your computer is powered off.
(3) Connect the interface cable to the parallel interface port on the back of the equipment and
secure it with the lock wires.
(4) Connect the other end of the interface cable to the printer port of your computer and secure
it with the two screws.

(6) While holding down the 0 key on the control panel of the facsimile equipment, plug the
