Table 25 – CDS Firmware Delivery Methods

Method A – This method ensures that the device will always have the
latest version of firmware installed. After a one-time setup by the service
technician, the imagePRESS C800/C700 will automatically download and
install new firmware as it becomes available. No further visits are
necessary for firmware updates.
Method B – This method enables the dealership to schedule a firmware
download to the imagePRESS C800/C700 via the UGW. This method
also provides the option to install the firmware automatically without a
service technician on-site or manually with a service technician on-site.
Method C – This method provides service technician with access to the
most recent version of firmware on demand at the machine as well as
having the flexibility to schedule the installation for a later time. A service
technician visit is required for each firmware update (as compared to the
one-time setup with Method A). However, the service technician no
longer needs to maintain a library of firmware versions.
Note: The Content Delivery System is available for the imagePRESS
C800/C700 with the imagePRESS Printer Kit or the imagePRESS Server
attached.
