  • Page 200: Firmware Environment Commands

    (3) Firmware environment commands The printer maintains a number of printing parameters in its memory. There parameters may be changed per- manently with the FRPO (Firmware RePrOgram) commands. This section provides information on how to use the FRPO command and its parameters using examples. Using FRPO commands for reprogramming firmware The current settings of the FRPO parameters are listed as optional values on the service status page.
