Firmware

The firmware is stored in flash-PROM on the control board. When replacing a control board, be sure to verify the control board contains the same firmware version that you are currently using and upgrade it if necessary.

Loading

Download the firmware from the Zebra web site http://www.zebra.com. There you will also find the Zebra Toolbox program (Windows™ software) facilitating the loading of the firmware into the printer.

Are you using a windows environment to load the firmware?

If…	Then…

No	a.	Send ESC NUL (1B 00 hex) to the printer.
	b.	Wait 0.5 seconds.
	c.	Send the firmware file to the printer.
	d. Wait until the printer buzzes to confirm that the loading is complete (the
		presenter motor runs for a second).
Yes	a.	The loader program contains a help file with detailed instructions on how to
		load the firmware into the printer.

Caution • The loading and burning can take up to one minute. Do not abort before one minute by turning OFF the power to the printer. Doing so may leave the printer in a state where new firmware cannot be loaded. If this happens, please return the printer to a Zebra authorized service provider.

Firmware and Hardware Revisions

It is important that you load Firmware that suits the hardware revision of the control board in your printer. The hardware revision is printed on the self-test printout, or can be read out of the printer with the <ESC><ENQ><10> command.

Functions and features are added occasionally which affect the firmware in the printer. Please visit our website www.zebra.com for the most current firmware version.
