time. Only the Admin user may perform a firmware update through the xPrintServer user
interface.

2. Click the Admin tab to access the Admin menu. A list of all available Admin user
configuration options appears to the left of the screen (see Figure 4-10).
3. Click the Firmware link on the left side of the page. The firmware you are currently running
will display.
4. Click the Check for Firmware Update button to check if a firmware update is available at
this time. After a few seconds, you will receive one of two messages:
 “Firmware update is available” indicating you may proceed to step 5.
 “You are running the latest version of the firmware” indicating no firmware update is
necessary at this time.
