Update firmware for wireless printer?

I recently bought a LaserJet CP1525nw.  It is NOT light and it is located in a central area of my house.  It has integrated wireless and I have a wireless connection to it.  One of my PC is an HP and its pilot of routine updates check revealed that the new firmware is available for the printer. The firmware update description says that it can be run successfully on a network or through a USB connection.  Of course, my "network connection" is wireless and I have heard in the past that the firmware updates should be made via a wired connection only.  On the other hand, I have never had a printer that has been designed to operate on a wireless connection.

So my question is... is it safe allow the update of the firmware to do wireless, or do I need to connect the printer via USB?

Thank you...

I've updated my cp1525nw, wireless, no problem.

    Once you install a new printer firmware for your printer, is it possible to return to the earlier version of the firmware of the printer in case an error occurs?

    It may be an option, as long as the error prevents you to connect to the machine. Even so, some firmware update software will not allow a downgrade. This is something that you should go to the manufacturer of the printer for more information.

  • Unable to update firmware for the PERC 5 controller / i on PE1950

    We have 6 PE1950 server with SAS PERC 5 / i integrated RAID controllers. Dell OpenManage complains about being obsolete PERC firmware. 2 servers I currently have running, firmware 5.2.1 - 0062 and 5.1.1 - 0040. I downloaded the latest version of 5.2.2 - 0072. I tried the update by the Windows package and who did not, and he complain about the OS being too recent. A server is Windows Server 2008 R2 and the other Windows Server R2 2012. So, I created a BACK USB key with Dell hard drive files and run update.bat. Who failed on both servers with the following errors:

    Firmware doesn't have flash. Stop!

    Failed to update Firmware for controller 0

    The process of updating of the firmware of the controller does not have!

    Both servers had the exact same mistakes as described above. Ideas on how I can get the firmware update successfully? I checked the package I downloaded is for the PERC 5 / I integrated.

  • HP M251n: Could not find the new firmware for M251n printer

    Can someone give me the link for the latest firmware for M251n? I'm unable to connect to the internet, so to update my Mac.

    Also can´t I see in the HP utility and how you can update the firmware (download of files?).

    Any help would be great

    Hello

    You can download it below:

    Be aware that the latest firmware has been released prior release of El Capitan and therefore not formally scheduled for the operating system, although likely, it should work.

    If you experience problems when trying to update, try to update from a different computer with an operating system, which means up to Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9) or Windows 10:

  • Update firmware for HX100V?

    Request for update of firmware for HX100V to include photography in fast motion in the film section. Now I can record in 30ps (MPEG4) or 60ps (AVCHD). It should be possible to allow flexible adjustment for slower frame per second to produce the same photograph of time-lapse effects. No necessary intervalometer. My cheapie GE X 5 camera have intervalometer setting for interval of 30 s, 1 min, 5 min & 10 min. Kind of sad to see that you missed this feature in a perfect unit for photography accelerated. Get there in the guy.

    Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum.

    I forwarded your suggestion to the applicable to review Sony team in a future update.

  • Workstation HP Z240 tour: update Firmware for Z240

    Workstation HP Z240 Tower
    Product number: L8T12AV

    To update the Firmware, I provided this link by the customer support:

    http://h20564.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/detail?sp4ts.Oid=8323794&swItemId=wk_158289_1&swEnvOid=419...

    Using the link, I was able to download and run sp74202.exe.
     
    A set of instructions then appear as follows:
     
    Another utility of FWUpdLcl.exe in the directory of Mee Flash\Local-Win is designed to update the ME firmware in an environment 32-bit or 64-bit Windows, the "Run" box or a command prompt. Her can be updated by running the following command: "FWUpdLcl.exe - f... \11001197.bin-generique. In addition, when you run a 64-bit Windows environment, use the command: "FWUpdLcl64.exe - f... \11001197.bin-generique. ME Flash contains the binary update image for use with the utility.  The binary image of the update and the content of the file room for both parties can be copied to any volume of storage available in the Windows operating system.
     
     
    Since I'm on 64-bit Windows 10 I guess I need to run the command: FWUpdLcl64.exe - f... \11001197.bin-generique
     
    My question is... How can I fill this order, that is, how know what folder to look at, to find the files.

    Many thanks for the advice.

    When you run HP service packs, they will enlarge and place their content under a clean directory in C:\swsetup.

    Specifically, in your case, if you are running sp74202.exe, you should see a new directory that c:\swsetup\sp74202 was created with the contents of the service pack to the breast.

    You can also use 7-zip to look inside the service pack exe without running from the exe is a zip file that runs the installation program once unzipped self-extracting

    In any case, is a more recent version update ME here , but first of all, I would apply the latest system firmware update available here.

    When looking at service pack HP above links, it is advisable to selectively click on each 'Description' and 'Improvements', 'Instructions of Installation' 'Release Notes' 'fixes' tabs 'History' and read the information (some of it is repetative, but you'll soon learn where to focus your attension).

    The content of these tabs contain important and relevant information on what has been improved, corrected, what system it is, how to install the update, etc. And if one SP installed previously is not listed in the tab 'historic' liberation may have been driven by HP due to certain behaviours fauly or another question!

    Attension pay including prerequisites in some cases of updates must be reinforced (is that you can always just apply later).

    And if you read these things boaring, tab Instructions of Installation of the firmware (BIOS) system would have given you a clue where the sp files are extended to the

    Have you tried simply enter the command (as shown) via a command prompt window and change the directory where the FWUpdLcl.exe file is located?

    Just keep in mind that sp74202 is the initial ME firmware release is nothing so sould update

    So best to apply the latest firmware system (BIOS), then the ME firmware, then maybe later ME software (under chipset drivers).

    Better to mark this page that lists all downloads for your 64-bit of Windows 10 z240 Tower system then see him regularly.

  • The HP DeskJet F4480 is set up for wireless printing?

    Hello

    When I bought my F4480, I thought it was a wireless printer.  I currently have a desktop Mac Power PC G4 running Tiger (10.4.11) and a computer laptop windows XP Pro running. The printer is connected via USB to a Mac, and I tried to set up printing wireless on the laptop. After several hours of trying, googling and looking for the manual, I finally decided to post here.

    Question 1 can we do? (if the answer is no, then "thank you" and I'll be on my way...)

    Question 2 in the affirmative and who have already installed the necessary drivers on my laptop, what is the next step?

    Sorry to be such a fool. Thanks in advance.

    Series F4400 (including your part done F4480) has USB connectivity only.  The series F4500 has USB and wireless.

    But, with the printer connected to your Mac, you can share printing works (but not scan) between the computers on your network.  To do this download and install Hello for Windows for your XP from here.  If your XP already has a version of Hello (installed by iTunes), uninstall before installing this version.

    Run it and it will find the printer connected to your Mac.  Make sure that your Mac is enabled and that it is set to never sleep (System Preferences > energy saver).

  • Canon MX870 - need to reinstall the printer for wireless printing, whenever I reboot computer

    Hello

    I had my Canon MX 870 for almost 4 years now and have always printed wireless. A few weeks ago my printer started to appear offline when I started my laptop and the only way I could get the printer back online was to remove the printer and reinstall the software again. Since then, every day, I have to remove the printer and reinstall the software and driver in order to use the wireless printer.

    I tried all known bugs and nothing has worked.

    Does anyone have suggestions on what could cause this problem?

    Hello.

    The issue you describe seems to be linked to a timeout between the router and the printer.  In this case, he should be advised that you turn the printer off and on again in order to refresh the connection to the network.  I apologize for the inconvenience.

    If additional information is required, please call us at 1-800-OKCANON.

  • updated firmware for the clip and clip +.

    Hello

    I have an old Clip 4 GB firmware v 01.01.29A and a Clip + 8 GB firmware v 01.02.15A. I see that these are outdated versions and newer versions are available. I've never updated the firmware, so I was reading the messages to see how. Here's my question; I read that to remove FM Radio you should 'drop' the 'A' in the update. I see that the updates do not have the letter 'A' affixed. This doesn't mean no FM Radio more if I update the firmware for both of the clips? I don't want to lose the radio.

    Thanks in advance for any help

     

    I wouldn't bother with updating the Clip +. There is very little has changed since the version.15. It's the one I always use on mine.

    No, you won't lose the FM radio by updating the firmware. You must have read some old posts.

  • Y at - he liked an update firmware for the sansa clip

    If I use the sansa updater it detects it as a normal element and gives me a firmware to install, one that ends in 32 I think, but if I install what I think ill ruin the clip, so I ask if a firmware update for the clip more were released, I got V01.01.05A firmware now

    No update firmware at the moment; you have the most recent.  If/when an update of the issues, it is likely is displayed as a sticky thread at the top of this forum.

  • WRT1900AC updated firmware over wireless?

    I have a router WRT1900AC

    On my last router, it was very important to make all updates of firmware via a wired connection

    On this WRT1900AC, I read the firmware upgrade process p.43 user guide and it is said you can leave it on the automatic update or click Update but it does not say anywhere that you must be connected to the router with an ethernet cable

    Is it safe to update via a wireless connection?

    It should work fine, but Ethernet is always recommended.
