printer, if necessary.

Downloading and Updating the Firmware

When you see the prompt, click OK to have the EPSON LFP Remote
Panel utility automatically locate and download the latest firmware from
the Epson website.
If you need to download the firmware manually, visit Epson’s U.S.
support website (www.epson.com/support) or Canadian support
website (www.epson.ca/support), select your product, then click
Drivers & Downloads.
Choose the firmware update version for Windows or Macintosh and
follow the instructions on the screen.
3. Make sure your printer is turned on, its LCD displays READY, and it is
connected to your computer or network, then choose your printer.
4. Click Browse and find the firmware file that you just downloaded and
extracted. Select the file and click Choose or Open.
5. If the firmware version of the file is newer, click Update to start the
firmware updating process. (If it is the same, you don’t need to update.)
