Firmware Updates
Firmware updates are sometimes available from the service Web site or the printer Web site.
Firmware is usually updated using a program and a separate firmware update file. The program
guides you through the update process. In most cases, you should update firmware when your
service provider recommends it.
Be careful to choose a firmware file that exactly matches your printer type.
Upgrades
An upgrade adds functionality to your printer. Most often, upgrades are physical changes to
the printer, performed by the service provider. Depending on the printer, the following types
of upgrades might be available:
Magnetic stripe module
Smart card module
— High-capacity input hopper
High-capacity output hopper
Field upgrades come with installation instructions designed for trained service providers.
Instructions for using the new functionality are included in InfoCentral > Features.
