READ THIS FIRST: Special notes and considerations

− Firmware upgrade warning:

− IMPORTANT: Always evaluate the firmware update on one device in the
customer specific ecosystem and verify functionality before proceeding to update
a fleet of devices
− Any device running xxxBL.061.001 - xxxBL.061.999 must first update to a FW7
based release such as xxxBL.076.308 before upgrading to xxxBL.081.015 or
newer. Failure to do so can result in a device that will not power up to “ready”
state
− Any device running FW5.1 or older (xxxxx.051.yyy or smaller numbers) must first
update to a FW7 based release such as xxxxx.076.308 before upgrading to
xxxxx.081.015 or newer
− CS72x/CX72x Series devices and their equivalents running ATL.03x.yyy or
ATL.02x.yyy firmware must first update to CSTAT.041.090 or CXTAT.041.090 as
an initial intermediate release before updating to a FW7 based release, such as
xxxxx.076.308, and then finally updating to xxxxx.081.015 or newer
− Contact Lexmark Technical Support to obtain intermediate releases if needed
− Firmware downgrade warning:
− Firmware downgrade is no longer supported, if there is a reason firmware
downgrade is required, please contact Lexmark Technical Support and see KB
Article SO8017
− Downgrading firmware can result in exposure to known security vulnerabilities
and will result in the loss of Apps, Security Features, and Settings
− Ensure the firmware you download is the correct one for the product you have

Additional notes and considerations

− Firmware upgrade warning:

− It may take up to 20 minutes and multiple firmware steps to update devices to
FW23 code if the code level currently on the device is FW2 or FW3 based
− To know if the device is currently running FW2 or FW3 based code, check the
firmware version on the device. FW2 and FW3 based code will have the
following version format:
− ATL.03x.yyy or ATL.02x.yyy
− CB.03x.yyy or CB.02x.yyy
− PP.03x.yyy or PP.02x.yyy
− YK.03x.yyy or YK.02x.yyy
−
− Understanding firmware nomenclature:
− Beginning with FW4, firmware versions are named in the pattern ABCDD.xxy.zzz
where:
− A tells whether the printer is Mono or Color (M = mono, C = color)
− B tells whether the printer is Single or Multi-function (S = single function
printer (SFP), X = multi-function printer (MFP))
− C tells whether the UI is a touch screen, non-touch/non-eSF capable, or
“lite feature set” (T = touch screen with 4.3” or larger screen, N = non-
touch screen or non-eSF capable and non-lite, L = lite )
− DD tells the model family
− xx tells the major firmware EC version, while y tells the minor firmware EC
version (050 = FW5.0, 051 = FW5.1, etc.)
− zzz tells the release number within that firmware EC
− FW2 or FW3 firmware versions are named in the pattern DD.xxy.zzz using the
same mapping as above. However, the DD model families used on FW2 and
FW3 were changed on FW4 and newer:
− ATL on FW2 and FW3 becomes AT on FW4 and newer
− CB on FW2 and FW3 becomes AT on FW4 and newer
− YK on FW2 and FW3 becomes PP on FW4 and newer
