Caution
**Caution** A critical error may occur if another computer or application communicates with the printer (for example, by printing) while the firmware is being updated. Do not turn OFF the printer or disconnect the USB cable or LAN cable while the firmware is being updated.
* In order to prevent errors: Connect the printer using either a USB cable or a LAN cable only (do not connect both cables). (A USB cable is recommended as it is not affected by other computers.) Disconnect the telephone cable from the printer to prevent faxes from interrupting the firmware update. When connecting the printer with a USB cable, do not connect the cable via a USB hub as this may cause a connection error. When the printer is connected with a LAN cable, do not perform printing, etc. while the firmware is being updated. The printer will need service if a critical error, such as the printer not starting up after the main power has been turned ON, occurs.
