System Maintenance
At locations where the machine contains sensitive data, the customer engineer cannot operate the machine until the Administrator turns the service mode lock off. This function makes sure that work on the machine is always done with the permission of the Administrator.
If you cannot go into the SP mode, ask the Administrator to log in with the User Tool and then set "Service Mode Lock" to OFF after he or she logs in:
User Tools > Machine Features > System Settings > Administrator Tools > Service Mode Lock > OFF
This unlocks the machine and lets you get access to all the SP codes.
The CE can service the machine and turn OFF then ON the machine power. It is not necessary to ask the Administrator to log in again each time the main power is turned ON.
Go into the SP mode and set SP5-169 to "1" if you must use the printer bit switches.
After machine servicing is completed:
Change SP5-169 from "1" to "0".
Turn OFF then ON the machine power. Tell the administrator that you have completed servicing the machine.
The Administrator will then set the "Service Mode Lock" to ON.
The maximum number of characters which can show on the control panel screen is limited to 30 characters. For this reason, some of the SP modes shown on the screen need to be abbreviated. The following are abbreviations used for the SP modes for which the full description is over 20 characters.

An SD card is a precision device, so when you handle an SD card, respect the following.
When the power is switched ON, do not insert or remove a card.
During installation, do not switch the power OFF.
Since the card is manufactured to high precision, do not store it in a hot or humid location, or in direct sunlight.
Do not bend the card, scratch it, or give it a strong shock.
Before downloading firmware to an SD card, check whether write-protection of the SD card is canceled. If write-protection is enabled, an error code (error code 44, etc.) will be displayed during download, and the download will fail.
Before updating firmware, remove the network cable from this machine.
If SC818 is generated during software update, switch the power OFF -> ON, and complete the update which was interrupted.
During software update, disconnect network cables and interface cables, remove wireless boards, etc., (so that they are not accessed during the update).
If the SD card is blank, copy the entire "romdata" folder onto the SD card.
If the card already contains the "romdata" folder, copy the "D244" folder onto the card.
If the card already contains folders up to "D244", copy the necessary firmware files (e.g. D244xxxx.fwu) into this folder.
Do not put multiple machine firmware programs on the same SD card. Copy the only model firmware you want.
System Maintenance

The PDF firmware installed as standard contains the program required to print PS3 data by default. However, this PS3 program is normally disabled.
The PS3 firmware is a dongle (key) which enables PS3 data printing functions. When the PS3 firmware is installed, the PS3 program in the PDF firmware is enabled. Due to this specification, the self-diagnosis result report shows the ROM part number/software version of the PDF firmware contained in the PS3 program.
In this machine, software can be updated by remote control using @Remote.
SFU | SD | RFU | ARFU | |
Individual firmware | N/A | Available | Available | N/A |
Package firmware | Available | Available | Available | Available |
RFU is performable for a device which meets the following conditions.
The customer consents to the use of RFU.
The device is connected to a network via TCP/IP for @Remote.
System Maintenance
A HDD unit must be installed on the machine to enable the SFU or the package firmware update via SD card.
Each firmware module (such as System/Copy, Engine, etc.) used to be updated individually. However, an all-inclusive firmware package (package_ALL) is now available.
There are two ways to update using the firmware package.
Package firmware update via a network: SFU (Smart Firmware Update)
Package firmware update with an SD card
There are two methods for SFU.
Immediate Update: To update the firmware when visiting
Update at the next visit: To set the date and time for downloading. The firmware will be automatically downloaded beforehand and updated at the following visit.
"Update at the next visit" is recommended since firmware download may take some minutes due to the network condition.
SFU requires the connection to @Remote via a device which has the embedded
@Remote communicating function. When a machine is connected to @Remote via an intermediate device (RC Gate), the SFU function is disabled.
Package firmware update can also be performed using the conventional SD card method by writing the package firmware directly to the SD card.
SFU | SD Card | RFU | ARFU | |
Individual firmware | N/A | Available | Available | N/A |
Package firmware | Available | Available | Available | Available |
Enter the [Firmware Update] menu in the SP mode and update the package firmware.
The [Firmware Update] button will appear even when a machine is connected to
@Remote with a device which does not have an embedded @Remote communicating function.
If an error code is displayed, refer to page 5-16 "Error Screens During Updating".
System Maintenance
If the error code E66, which indicates that the download of the firmware has failed, is displayed, go back to step 1.
Update will be started automatically after the download is finished.
When the machine is in the update mode, the automatic update is suspended if a print job is started. After the print job is finished, press [YES] on the display shown below to restart updating.
The machine will automatically reboot itself.
The figures at the lower right of the display indicate "Number of updated items/ All items to be updated".
System Maintenance
It is possible to set the machine to download the package firmware which is necessary for SFU in advance, and then perform the actual installation at the next service visit. This saves waiting time for the firmware to download at the service visit.
Enter the [Firmware Update] menu in the SP mode and update the package firmware.
The [Firmware Update] button will appear even when a machine is connected to
@Remote with a device which does not have an embedded @Remote communicating function. If an error code is displayed, refer to page 5-16 "Error Screens During Updating".
"Next time to visit this customer": The package firmware will be automatically downloaded by this time/date.
"When to receive? (1-7)": The download of the package firmware will begin this number of days before the next visit.
In the two diagrams below, the firmware is set to be downloaded by the day before the next scheduled visit. In the first diagram, the download is successful on the first try. In the second diagram, the download fails three times and is successful on the fourth try.
If the firmware download fails or cannot be completed due to the network settings/condition, no power to the machine, or other reason, the machine will continue retrying every six hours until the scheduled deadline (up to a maximum of four tries). For example, if the download is
System Maintenance
set for the day before the next visit, the machine will attempt the download at 24 hours before the visit, and then continue trying every six hours (max. four tries total).
The retry is only performed in cases when the firmware download has failed.
If the machine is in Energy Saver mode when the download is scheduled to begin, the download will be performed in the background and the machine/panel will stay in Energy Saver mode.
The download will continue uninterrupted even if the customer initiates a print job, copy job, fax receiving or other operation while the download is in progress.
The download will be terminated if the customer turns the power off while the download is in progress.
If the download cannot be completed successfully by the time of the next scheduled visit, the machine will stop trying to download the firmware.
When the package firmware was downloaded successfully, the details of the download result are displayed as the following picture shows.
This information will only be displayed if the reserved firmware has already been downloaded. If not, all the data items are indicated with "-".
System Maintenance
Update is started.
If the version of the reserved package in the HDD is older than the latest version, the messages shown in the following picture are displayed.
If you wish to download the latest version, press [Execute] beside the message "Download and update the latest package." Then update of the package firmware will be started.
If you wish to update using the firmware in the HDD (old version), press [Execute] beside the message "Update to the received package."
The machine will automatically reboot itself.
System Maintenance
The figures at the lower right of the display indicate "Number of updated items/ All items to be updated".
If an error code is displayed, refer to page 5-16 "Error Screens During Updating".
If you copy the package firmware into the conventional "romdata" folder, the update will not work.
Only one version of the package firmware should be copied into the folder. If you copy multiple versions of package firmware to the SD card, the machine will select only one version of the firmware randomly.
When the SD card contains both a firmware package and one or more modules, the following display may show up. Select [Package] and press [OK] to move to step 5 above.
System Maintenance
The figures at the lower right of the display indicate "Number of updated items/ All items to be updated".
Auto remote firmware update (ARFU) requires connection to the Internet. Be sure to get permission from the customer before setting.
By Auto Remote Firmware Update (ARFU), the firmware is updated by checking the global server every 76 hours and downloading the latest package if it is newer than the one installed on the machine.

The machine checks the server for the latest package version.
If the version of the package on the global server is later than that of the package installed on the
machine, or if the machine has not downloaded the firmware package, the machine downloads the latest package in the background even when the customer is using the machine.
If download fails, the machine will retry downloading 76 hours later.
The downloaded package can also be used with SFU (Smart Firmware Update). A package downloaded with SFU (Smart Firmware Update) can be used with ARFU (Auto Remote Firmware Update) and vice versa.
When replacing the hard disk, the firmware package data becomes lost from the hard disk. Even if the latest firmware is on the new hard disk, be sure to receive the latest package data.
When the machine connects to the server where the package files are stored, the DNS settings and the name solution by DNS are needed. The machine will still try to download the package even if the name cannot be resolved, but will fail as the name is not resolved.
The time and date to send the next inquiry to the global server can be checked with SP5-886-116 (Farm Update Setting: Auto Update Next Date).
The auto remote firmware update is executed every 76 hours.
Update judgement is done when the latest update package is successfully downloaded, or the package has already been downloaded.
If the judgement timing is in the range of the update prohibited time or day set with SP or WIM, the machine will retry the update after 76 hours.
System Maintenance
If the machine is in use when the judgement process runs, the process is retried. Retry is done up to three times every hour (can be changed with SP) and if the machine is in use for all three retries, the machine will retry the update after 76 hours

When the machine has decided to run the auto firmware update, the following message is displayed.
System Maintenance
The popup will have "Cancel" and "OK" buttons and the update process will start either when the "OK" button is selected or 30 seconds has passed.
When the "Cancel" button is selected, the machine will run the "Retry update" process.
When the device update and three retries in recovery mode both fail, it is determined as a device defect and will display an SC for the defective device. If such an SC appears, replace the indicated board. In the case of SC845, the SC cannot be reported to the call center.
Device name | SC number |
Engine board | SC845-01 |
Controller board | SC845-02 |
Operation panel (normal panel) | SC845-03 |
Operation panel (smart panel) | SC845-04 |
FCU | SC845-05 |
It is possible to cancel the Auto Remote Firmware Update (ARFU) or update in recovery mode from the operation panel.
But this is not possible while updating the operation panel itself. On the other hand, the update for the operation panel will run at the final stage of the update. Thus canceling the update at that stage has no real effect.
When the update is cancelled, the machine will reboot when updates for all modules of one of the following devices is done.
Engine Board
FCU
Controller Board
Operation Panel
For example, when the update process is cancelled while updating the first module of the operation panel, the machine will reboot when all modules in the operation panel have been updated.
The firmware contents included in the package can be referred to in the release note in SERES release of the package.
The next update will run 76 hours after the cancellation. The old (cancelled) package will be discarded if the package downloaded 76 hours later is the latest.
System Maintenance
In SP7-520-041 to -045 (Update Log: Auto:Version), you can check the versions of the packages updated by ARFU. (-041 displays the latest result. It is also printed on the SMC sheet.)
"-051" is the latest update result. For details about the number of each result log, see next section “Related SP.”

22 | Update by retry successful | After power failure, unsuccessful update, or rebooting, update by retry is executed successfully. However, this does not apply to the case where the update was cancelled after the process was initiated because a user selected “Cancel”. In this case, the update is “successful” if the retry is not executed between the start and completion of the next update (76 hours after the cancellation). |
System Maintenance
When unzipping the downloaded file, two subfolders ("update" and "sdk") exist in the "sdk" folder. Rather than just copying the subfolder "sdk", copy the whole folder "sdk".
SD card can be inserted with the machine power off.
During the updating process, do not turn off the power.
If you turn off the power during the updating, the machine performance is not guaranteed. (There is a possibility that an SC and boot failure occurs.)
If you accidentally turn off the power during the updating, retry the updating procedure from the beginning. (If the update fails again, you will need to replace the controller board.)
The Heap size setting is changed to the initial setting when updating.
When you fail to update, "Update SDK/J done FAIL" is displayed. You can confirm the cause of the error message below.
See the manual for the ESA application to know what value to set for the heap size.
Update results are output as a text file on the SD card called "sdkjversionup.log" in the "¥sdk
¥update" folder.

System Maintenance
Do the following procedure to upload SP code settings from NVRAM to an SD card.
This data should always be uploaded to an SD card before the NVRAM is replaced.
Make sure that the write protection of an SD card is unlocked.
Make sure to shut down and reboot the machine once before printing the SMC. Otherwise, the latest settings may not be collected when the SMC is printed.
Here is an example with Serial Number "K5000017114": NVRAM¥K5000017114.NV
System Maintenance
You can upload NVRAM data from more than one machine to the same SD card.
Do the following procedure to download SP data from an SD card to the NVRAM in the machine.
The NVRAM data download may fail if the SD card with the NVRAM data is damaged, or if the connection between the controller and BCU is defective.
Do the download procedure again if the download fails.
Do the following procedure if the second attempt fails:
Enter the NVRAM data manually using the SMC print you created before uploading the NVRAM data.
The serial number of the file on the SD card must match the serial number of the machine for the NVRAM data to download successfully. The download fails if the serial numbers do not match.
This procedure does not download the following data to the NVRAM:
Total Count
C/O, P/O Count
