Remote firmware update by using FTP on a direct network
connection
If the device uses a direct network connection, use file transfer protocol (FTP) to update the firmware.
Complete the following steps:
1.
Make note of the TCP/IP address on the HP Embedded Jetdirect page. The HP Embedded
Jetdirect page is the second page of the configuration page printout. To print a configuration
page, see
Print the configuration page on page 275.
NOTE: Before connecting to the device, make sure that the device is not in Powersave
mode. Also make sure that any error messages are cleared from the control-panel display.
2.
Open a command window on the computer.
3. Type ftp://<TCP/IP printer ADDRESS>. For example, if the TCP/IP address is
192.168.0.90, type ftp://192.168.0.90.
4.
Press Enter on the keyboard.
5.
When prompted for the user name, press Enter.
6.
When prompted for the password, press Enter.
7. Type bin at the command prompt.
8.
Press Enter. The message 200 Type set to I, Using binary mode to transfer files
appears in the command window.
9. Type put <FILENAME>, where <FILENAME> is the name of the .RFU file that was downloaded
from the Web, including the path. For example, type put C:\LJ\xxxxFW.RFU, and then press
Enter.
NOTE: If the file name or path includes a space, you must enclose the file name or path
in quotation marks. For example, type the following path:
put "c:\My Documents\CM8060\xxxxfw.rfu"
The following series of messages appears in the command window:
200 PORT command successful
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection
226 Ready
226 Processing Job
226 Transfer complete
After these messages appear, a message containing transfer-speed information appears.

The download process begins and the firmware is updated on the device. This can take several
minutes. Let the process finish without further interaction with the device or the computer. The
messages described in the section
Printer messages during the firmware update on page 277
appear on the control panel.
