Each line of the file must end with a carriage return and line feed (Enter).

Firmware Files

Files with the .hex extension are recognized as firmware images. These firmware images will be

sent to a Zebra printer and will be programmed by a Zebra printer.

The name of a firmware file would be included in a manifest file. The manifest file and the

corresponding firmware file would then be added to a package and finally to a bundle to provision

the firmware file update.

Note:

Due to limitations of RAM memory in QL printers, firmware updates cannot be accomplished

across WLAN for QL printers.

Supported printers should be on AC power during a firmware update.

Zebra Firmware is available at www.zebra.com

1. Select Drivers and downloads.

2. In the Find Firmware For Your Printer list, select the appropriate printer model.

3. Click Submit and download the firmware for the printer model selected.

Note:

The navigation instructions to the firmware are for the Zebra web site at the time this document

was released. The Zebra web site may change along with the navigation path to the firmware.

Other Files

Any files without these extensions will be sent to the printer and the printer may or may not

process them depending on the content.

Configuring a WLAN Setting For a Supported

Zebra Printer

This section of the chapter provides an example of how to create a package with the necessary

files to configure one or more supported Zebra printers with a WLAN setting. The WLAN setting

will configure the radio on a supported Zebra printer to use TKIP for this example.
