1Download the new system software PostScript file SYS- TEMDL.PS to the printer, over any available interface, the way you would normally send a PostScript file.

For example, you might use PS Executive, copy, or fstprn from a PC, or qpr or put from a UNIX system.

The downloading process takes about 5 minutes, depending on the size of the file and the speed of your computer. The printer’s Ready indicator blinks as the new system image is copied to flash memory.

After the updated system software has been written to flash memory, 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.
