Updating Files
Use this tab to update the printer’s firmware or print server’s firmware. Select additional MPCL
files to send to the printer (fonts, graphics, etc.).
1. Select the binary Firmware File to Load.
2. Select the Monarch Initialization File (.mif) to Load.
3. Select the Print Server Firmware File to Load.
4. Enter any Printer Accessory Files to Load, including formats, fonts, graphics, check digits,
etc.
Saving Changes
1. When you are done specifying the print server’s settings, select Write Configuration from
the File menu.
2. Exit the Sierra Sport Configurator.
The print server’s configuration is set and ready for Avalanche to send to the printer.
3. Using the Avalanche Management Console, highlight the client and click Update Now,
which updates the client immediately, instead of waiting until the scheduled time.
Creating Your Own Packages
We created the AVA package (SSCfg.AVA) to easily configure the print server and send
updates to the printer. If you just need to update firmware, you can create your own package.
1. Use the Avalanche Package Builder to set up packages since everything is transferred to
the printers via a package.
You may want to create separate packages for printer firmware updates or print server
firmware update.
