Service Notes "Firmware Update" for PCL or PS Option Installation

To use PCL (DA-PC190: UF-9000; DA-PC188: DP-180/190) or PS (DA-MC190: UF-9000; DA-MC188:
DP-180/190) option individually, changing to Type B or Type D SC firmware is required. The required
firmware is on the CD included with the options.
Note:
The 8 MB Expansion Board (DA-EM600) must be installed for the printer controllers above to function.
The only time a DA-EM600 is needed is if you are installing the PostScript (PS) or PCL option. There will
never be a need for 2 of these, even if there are other options, such as Fax, added.
Before proceeding, it is important to determine the Final Configuration of your machine in order to correctly
identify the required firmware from the table below. Carefully read, and follow the Installation Instructions for
the appropriate option.
The firmware for SC, and SPC must be updated in this sequence as a set. Please update the firmware with
the latest version as a set by referring to the following table.
