4. Following a successful download, the PAUSED Light will

illuminate then the printer will perform a ‘cold reset.’ The previous
printer setup will not be affected unless substantial firmware data
structure changes have occurred. Print a Database Configuration
Label to verify your new firmware version.

Following an unsuccessful download, the FAULT Light will
illuminate then the printer will perform a ‘warm reset’ (both the
POWER and PAUSED Light will be on during power-up
initialization). The original firmware will remain operational. If
the printer fails to reset, toggle the power ‘Off’ and ‘On.’

Try re-sending the file to the printer. If the failure continues,
check the following possible causes:

• An invalid or corrupted file is being downloaded - Ensure the

file being downloaded is correct and applicable for your
printer model.

• Possible communications error - Check the cable connection

between the host and printer and ensure that a quality,
shielded cable is used.

• Possible Flash memory problem - Call for service.

If the printer fails to boot-up after an unsuccessful download, turn
‘Off’ the power. Simultaneously press and hold the F1 and F3
buttons while powering ‘On’ the printer. Now, try downloading
the file to the printer.
