Upgrading over the
Network using FTP
To upgrade over the network using FTP you will need the file with the
new print server software. The name of this file is in the form
product_version.bin, e.g. 5470e_620.bin for software release
6.20. You can use any of the previously mentioned methods to obtain
the new file.
You must assign the AXIS 5470e/570/670e with an IP address, as
described in Assigning an IP address, on page 32, before you can use
this upgrading method.
