Compare that version string to thosefilenames available from our FTP site and then download the desired file ontoyour computer’s hard drive.Proceed with the printer update accordingly:ü If the current application version is 2.091 or greater, refer to Section 5.4.1or Section 5.4.2.ü If the current application version is 2.08 or earlier, refer to Section 5.4.2.WARNINGShould an error occur during the download (see Section 5.4.3),the update is aborted. If this process did not reach ‘Erasing Flash’or ‘Updating Software’, the previous program is left intact;otherwise, a successful download must be completed before theprinter is operable.˛ Note: Users desiring a foreign language menu: After updating from 2.xx to3.xx firmware for the first time, you must also download the EFIGSmenu language file.
