1-7-1 Upgrading the firmware on the main board
Updating the engine and system (controller) firmware is possible by downloading the firmware through the parallel interface
or through the memory card (CompactFlash). These firmware programs are directly overwritten in the flash ROM on the
printer's engine board or system DIMM [board KP-893/1059] (Flash ROM type only) on the main board. The operator panel
message in different languages can also be downloaded through the parallel interface or through the memory card
(CompactFlash).
NOTE
System DIMM: Firmware update is possible only with a flash ROM type system DIMM [board]. Masked type
system DIMM [board] can not be overwritten. Check the type of the system DIMM [board] currently used on
the main board by service status page (See page1-4-2).
