Remote firmware update by using the HP Printer Utility

Make sure that the tools and files that are necessary for the update are available. Get the HP Printer

Utility and the M1120 MFPFW.RFU file, which is the firmware file for the device. The HP Printer Utility

is a software program that is available only for Mac OS X V10.3 and later.

The HP Printer Utility and the firmware file (M1120 MFPFW.RFU) can be downloaded from the following

Web site:

http://www.hp.com/go/ljM1120_firmware

Get the firmware file and the HP Printer Utility, and then begin the update process. Complete the

following steps:

1. Open the HP Printer Utility.

2. Select Update Firmware, click Choose, browse to firmware upgrade file, and then click Open.

3. On the Update Firmware screen, click Update.

NOTE: If an error message appears on the screen indicating that the device is offline, verify that

the device is turned on. If it is, ignore the message. The Updating screen appears and the update

proceeds as expected.

4. The update process can take several minutes. Let the process finish without further interaction with

the device or the computer. The messages described in the section

Device messages during the

firmware update on page 133 appear on the control panel.

NOTE: The device automatically turns off and then on again to activate the update; this can

happen more than once. At the end of the update process, the READY message appears on the

control panel. Do not turn off the device or interfere with the update until this message appears.

5. Print a configuration page and verify that the firmware revision number matches the revision of the

current update.
