Warning: Once the upgrade process has begun do not power off your
printer!
1. Print a Printer Settings page. Print a Printer Diagnostics page. Keep
these pages for future reference. For directions on doing this reference
the section labeled Check the following before the Upgrade.
2. Send the upgrade file to the printer. Use the format based on your
client operating system:
Windows NT (3.51 & 4.)
lpr -P ps -S <ipaddress> <filename>[RETURN]
OS/2
lpr -p ps -s <ipaddress> <filename>[RETURN]
UNIX (use lp or lpr as appropriate)
lpr <switches><queue><filename> [RETURN]
lp <switches><queue><filename> [RETURN]
Where:
<ipaddress> = the TCP/IP address the printer has been
<filename> = the path and name of the upgrade file
<queue> = the native queue to which the printer is assigned
<switches> = use switches as appropriate to your UNIX
environment
3. To see if your upgrade was successful see the section labeled
Determining a Successful Upgrade. If successful follow the instructions
in After the Upgrade.
