5Netware 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.

After sending firmware to the machine, do not turn off the machine until after the machine has performed an automatic restart.

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
