Upgrading firmware
Note: Always evaluate the firmware update on one device in the customer-specific ecosystem and verify functionality before proceeding to update a fleet of devices
- Any device running xxxBL.061.001 - xxxBL.061.999 must first update to a FW7-based release such as xxxBL.076.308 before upgrading to xxxBL.081.015 or newer. Failure to do so can result in a device that will not power up to a “ready” state.
- Any device running FW5.1 or older (xxxxx.051.yyy or smaller numbers) must first update to a FW7-based release such as xxxxx.076.308 before upgrading to xxxxx.081.015 or newer.
- CS72x/CX72x Series devices and their equivalents running ATL.03x.yyy or ATL.02x.yyy firmware must first update to CSTAT.041.090 or CXTAT.041.090 as an initial intermediate release before updating to a FW7-based release, such as xxxxx.076.308, and then finally updating to xxxxx.081.015 or newer.
- Contact Lexmark Technical Support to obtain intermediate releases if needed.
