Remote firmware update through an optional parallel port
If the device is connected through an optional parallel connection, then you can send the .RFU file
directly to the device by using a COPY command from a command prompt or an MS-DOS window.
Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003
The .RFU file can be sent directly to the device by typing a copy command at a command prompt or
in an MS-DOS window.

drivers, but it is possible to update the device firmware in Windows NT 4.0.
1. At a command prompt, type copy /b <FILENAME> <PORTNAME> , where <FILENAME> is the
name of the .RFU file (including the path) and <PORTNAME> is the name of the appropriate
device port (such as LPT1). For example, type the following:
C:\>copy /b c:\xxxxfw.rfu LPT1
NOTE: If the file name or path includes a space, enclose the file name or path in
quotation marks. For example, type C:\>copy /b "c:\My Documents
\xxxxfw.rfu" LPT1.
