Upgrade by Changing EPROM

Older models of Axis print servers use Erasable Programmable Read Only Memories (EPROM) for storing the print server software. You can only upgrade these models if you have a "EPROM-Burner" equipment and empty EPROM chips.

If this is not the case please contact one of Axis resellers or distributors and they will assist you. 

If you have the proper equipment your Axis print server can be upgraded according to the following procedure:

  1. Open the cover of the print server by unloosen the screws on the front panel. Take out the circuit board.
  2. Carefully, take out the EPROM(s) from the socket on the PCB and either erase them or use new EPROM(s) of the same type. The release document attached with the EPROM file describes what type of EPROM needed if you are not sure.
  3. Follow the instructions according to your specific equipment to download the EPROM file into the new or erased EPROM(s).
  4. Re-mount the EPROM(s) and assemble the print server.
  5. Connect the print server to the network and power supply according to the User's Manual.
  6. Print a test page (see instructions in the User's Manual) and verify that the new software version is written on the page.
  7. All the old settings are remained unchanged and the print server should start to work exactly as before but with the new software running instead. There is thus no need to perform factory default. 

If you have any questions please contact Axis Technical support, your local reseller or distributor.
