5 Netware GET from a server
You must have a Netware server on your network (running IPX/
SPX) and you must store the new firmware file in the SYS/Login
directory of the server. In this case, your PC makes the Print/Fax
server read the firmware data from the assigned Netware
server, the Print/Fax server attaches to the Netware server and
reads the firmware itself.
Reloading using the FTP Protocol from a
command prompt
By specifying the Print/Fax server PASSWORD AS THE
USERNAME when logging on, it becomes possible to upgrade the
firmware of the Print/Fax server or printer (if supported). The
following example assumes that the Print/Fax server password is
