HP LaserJet 1518ni - Firmware update does nothing

Hello people

I'm trying to upgrade my HP LaserJet 1518ni to the latest Firmware (2013-11-08, Version20130923, 4.22 M).

My current firmware datecode is: 20120110

I went here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3422472

Downloaded the file CP1510_Series_FW_Update - 20130923.exe

Firewall turned and AntVirus OFF, ran the executable with administrative privileges - he says he finds the printer and I see a progress bar and also the smiley at the end. But the printer is impressed and shows just "Ready" on the LCD screen, nothing has changed: files does simply nothing.

Tried via IP Port as well as USB on another PC, same effect.

What's not?

Where are the good old. RFU file that I just can TFTP at the printer...?

Thank you

Thomas

HI Jamieson et al.

OK, I solved it: the HP printer driver installed you need to update the firmware with the HP tool.

Inbox drivers using windows will not allow the tool to work.

As soon as I installed the HP Universal print driver I got it to work.

Would be easy for the firmware tool check, if 1) it comes to the printer 2) the sine qua non of a HP driver installed is given.

Unfortunately the tool simply sends the one-way firmware to a device.

Thanks anyway,

Thomas

    Hey everybody

    So I'm trying to fix my Sansa e260 friends and I'll get in trouble. When you turn it on, it just continuously restarts itself, I've included a video of what he does. http://Tinypic.com/r/2wq78jp/6

    Formatting the device using the Recovery Mode.  This erases all the materials for the device, but it's locked up in any case.

    For this procedure, first of all we have this word from our sponsor:

    In Recovery Mode, do not USE NOT THE COMMAND FORMAT WINDOWS ON THE PARTITION RESERVED.  Use the trick of ONLY sansa.fmt folder!

    Well, here are the steps (features of version 1 only):

    • Start with your OFF e200.
    • Slide the HOLD switch to the right (orange list).
    • Open a Windows Explorer on your PC.  Use my computer or [Windows key] + E.
    • Press and hold the REC button on your e200 while plugging in the USB cable.
    • The Sansa will specify "Welcome to Recovery Mode, type MSD."
    • On the PC, you will see a new device labeled 16 MB FORMAT.
    • Double-click this icon to open the reserved partition.  Yet once, DO NOT format using the available Windows command!
    • Right-click in this partition and select new folder.
    • Rename it sansa.fmt folder and you're ready!
    • With the help of remove it safely function (icon at the bottom of your screen in the taskbar), eject the Sansa.
    • Slide the HOLD switch to the left.
    • Try turning your restored e200 once she gets in shape automatically.

    Let us know how it goes!

  • LaserJet cp5225dn: laserjet cp5225dn firmware update is possible on network?

    I want to update the firmware on my Laserjet CP5225DN 2013. Instructions for downloading that the printer must be connected via USB. But when I run the exe firmware on my windows 10 desktop, it finds the printer on the network.

    I can possibly ruin my printer when trying to run the update of the firmware via the network instead of via USB?

    In order to run the update via the USB port, I have to carry the desktop PC to another from one end of the House.  All laptops that we have are macs, and the update of the firmware only works on a PC.  I expect a professional printer to be easier to manage than to require a USB connection, but I dream?

    Thanks for any help you can provide, as the warranty has expired for a long time.

    MJ - lee

    The instructions are as they are for a reason. Wired connection for firmware updates is always better. If wireless has been used and the wireless drop in the middle of the update, your printer can be roasted.

  • HP Laserjet CP3525 Firmware update failure

    I tried to update the firmware on a HP color Laserjet CP3525 using a USB connection by following the instructions that were posted on the HP website for the update of the Firmware.  It seemed that everything was fine, but when the printer is restarted it never gets past 6/6 on the LED display screen.  I left the printer in this condtion for several hours and it never gets beyond this area. I guess the upgrade of the Firmware caused the printer to do a hardware failure and is not recoverable, but I hope someone might be able to help get this back to the top and work.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Well, in general if the firmware update was interrupted for some reason any it would lead to this. This may be caused on the side of the computer (rebooting/logging out/end of the process until it's full) or the cord to which you are connected with, it is damaged in any way or not well focused in the USB ports.  I'm sorry you're in this situation, I understand that in a situation with limited spending caps, you would have legitimate to update concerns your other machines.

    If you have any questions or problems I or one of my colleagues are on this forum almost 24/7.

    I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week, Bob!

  • LaserJet 4250dtsnl Firmware update failed, now shows "Send Update"

    I was updating several of our printers in a network using HP WebJet Admin last night and there was a (LaserJet 4250dtsnl - Q5404A) printer that had active print jobs that runs through, as the firmware has been updated.  In the WJA interface, the upgrade of the firmware hung 99% and the message on the control panel of the printer showed performing the upgrade.  Today we power cycle the printer.

    He is (was) a 500/stapler connected (Q2443B) sheet that displays now an orange light and we have received a message on the sign indicating 'FIRMWARE CORRUPT ACCESSORRY externally' and ' RETURN '.  I tried to update the firmware using HOSTS (although he showed that he already had the correct version).  Same result, hanged 99%.

    Power cycling the device and tried to update via USB using the easy update utility.  Once again, same result.  Engine turned off, unplugged the stacker, pulled the power cord plugged in, and the only message on the screen was 'return Upgrade.  I tried once more to send the update via the USB port, but the message "Upgrade to return" remains.

    I am able to print test pages, so the printing functionality seems to work, but I did have the chance to test with a variety of documents.

    As I wrote this, I found another thread that says: "go to peripheral configuration, system configuration, ramdisk, set it to Off" and try to update the firmware again to remove the message "Upgrade to return" (http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Printers-LaserJet/Laserjet-4250-resend-update-after-firmware-upgrade/m-...).  I wonder if this can fix the damaged electric stackers.  Should I reconnect the electric Stacker before you make this correction, or anyone has any other suggestions?

    Thank you.

    While I did not set the stapler/bin, I was able to get rid of the message "Update of return" by the following steps:

    Turn the printer off
    Power to the printer, and when departures memory counting, press and hold the Stop button
    Wait until all three lights come on

    Press the green check button, then press the Menu key
    Scroll to clear all the errors of the RFU and press the green check button twice
    Turning the printer off, wait 10 seconds, then turn on the printer
    The poster printer now ready, but to be on the safe side, I did upgrade the firmware again via the USB port.

    Problem solved.

  • HP P2055dn Laser printer. Firmware update does not work.

    HP P2055dn Laser printer. Win 7-64. USB is connected. Download the appropriate firmware update, ljp2055dn_FW_Update_20120131.exe. Running the file. Select the printer in the dialog box. Printer has been powered up and ready. Bar showed progress update was sent to the printer and concluded successfully, with a smiling face in the dialog box. However, printer doesn't react at all, just keep to indicate loan. When the Self Test / Configuration page, it always shows firmware like 20111214.

    Printer works fine. The update is supposed to fix a security hole.

    Found the answer on the support page for businesses. Buried in the Menu of configuration, to the terms of Service, the last menu item is RFU. This determines if the firmware can be updated. The default value is OFF and LOCKED. It must be put on updating the firmware. After update, it will automatically return to CLOSED and LOCKED.

    It would have been nice if HP put it in the manual, rather than trying to pay $35 for the support of something that should have been documented. Must be a secret or maybe I'm the only person who didn't know what that meant the RFU.

  • The PRS - T1 firmware update does not complete

    EReader PRS - T1. Now that Sony's Reader store is closed, a new firware update redirects the reader to the Kobo store. Trying to do this update on the drive to fail with the "complete failure" message, tried again, not go. Tried on two different Windows 7 laptop computers and two different readers of PRS - T1. Both the same result. Where from here?

    I solved this problem, it's the latest firmware for the Sony Store closing.

    Sony did a bad job of coding, it does not check the space available on the drive. As the update needs to copy the updated firmware for the drive, the drive must exceed 100 meg free space to enable this. Two of my readers had less space to 100 meg. By removing some books in order to release the update about 110 meg proceeded until the end.

  • WRT350N firmware update does not

    Hi, I just got a unused WRT350N router.

    I had a few problems getting the installer on my MAC (OSX 10.5.6), but it turns out that they have problems using Firefox have been resolved when I started using Safari. However, I still have a problem unsettled with the upgrade of the firmware...

    I want to upgrade the firmware the 2.0.10 original to the most recent available from 2.0.19. I downloaded this on the support page, which gives me a text from the Readme file and a. IMG file which I assume is the firmware file (all the instructions I found imply there should be one.) BIN file)

    I connected my router to the MAC using a wired connection and followed the instructions to upgrade the firmware (using the.) IMG file), followed the steps of rest (including using the hardware reset button and the option of software factory default values), but when the router comes back to the top still says its firmware 2.0.10.

    I don't get any error message and have noticed that at the end of the upgrade it does NOT display the «update is successful, restart...» "message.

    I have lived this several times with the same results. Any ideas please?

    I thank in advance.

    Don't worry have solved it myself!

    I printed off manual and found an obscure reference to Web pages only work with IE and Netscape and so given my previous issues with Firefox I looked up an old install of Netscape and hey presto the update worked first - didn't even have to reset the router! :-)

    I hope can be useful to someone else at somepoint.

    PS. I know this is a 'reasonably' old router by today's standards, but I question what type of programming is sitting behind the pages that it only works with IE & Netscape! I realize that you cannot predict what are the browsers will be used in the future, but come on!
