Apple 1800428-001B Printer User Manual


 
6 When the control panel indicators stop flashing (the mes-
sage window will remain blank since the printer is non-func-
tional), send the new system software file SYSTEM.DL to the
printer.
Type
copy /b system.dl com
#
where
#
is 1 to 4. (/b refers to binary files.) If you’re not sure of the
number of the serial port, check your PC’s documentation.
The downloading process takes about 5 minutes, depending on
the size of the file and the speed of your PC. The Transparency
indicator blinks as the new system image is copied to flash ROM.
After the updated system software has been written to flash
ROM, the printer reboots with the new system image, prints a
start-up page, and returns to IDLE.
» Note:
The new flash image does not erase the old image until the
printer verifies that the new image is valid.
