All HP devices leave the factory with the most recent firmware version installed. If a remote firmware
update fails for the component, the .RFU file must be resent. The only component exception is the
formatter. See
Table 7-3 Update messages on page 277 for information regarding a formatter update
error.
Because a firmware update cannot be resent over a USB for Macintosh, contact an HP Customer Care
Center if a remote update fails in a Macintosh operating system.

Device message Explanation
RECEIVING UPGRADE This message appears from the time the device recognizes the beginning of
an .RFU update until the time the device has verified the validity and integrity of
the .RFU update.
NOTE: If the remote firmware update process is interrupted before the
firmware is downloaded (while RECEIVING UPGRADE appears on
the control-panel display), the firmware file must be sent again. No
message appears on the device control panel to indicate that the
update was interrupted.
PERFORMING UPGRADE This message appears while the device is actually reprogramming the firmware.
