The Printer Firmware - Available and

Jetdirect Firmware - Available columns

show the number of firmware files in the

HP Web Jetadmin repository that have

the same version or a higher version than

the device. In the highlighted line in

Figure 5, the Printer Firmware - Available

column shows 1 available (which is the

same version as on the device itself) and

the Printer Firmware - Severity column

shows that the firmware version on the

device is up-to-date. The Printer Firmware

- Severity column should be used to verify

if the latest (qualified) firmware from the

HP Web Jetadmin firmware repository is

installed on the device.

Note To re-apply the same firmware,

the Printer Firmware - Available

column shows 1 available even if

the same version is already

installed on the device.

To decide which device firmware to offer,

HP Web Jetadmin compares the device

model and version information in the

header of the firmware file against the

information in the firmware-download-

name SNMP object. Some device models

share the same firmware image and,

therefore, return the same model name in

the firmware-download-name SNMP

object. This way HP Web Jetadmin

knows to offer the same image for those

models. If the device does not support the

firmware-download-name SNMP object,

HP Web Jetadmin matches the name of

the device to the names in the firmware

file header.

After it is determined which devices to upgrade, simply highlight those devices and click the Firmware

tab (Figure 7). A window opens indicating which devices have a newer version of firmware

available. Highlight these devices and click Upgrade to begin the process. A new window opens that

allows users to select which version to download for each device or whether to skip certain devices

(Figure 8). The default operation for each device is to upgrade to the recommended most recent

version.

An alternative method for upgrading firmware is to click Upgrade Firmware from the firmware

repository. A window opens offering the list of all the devices from which to make a selection

(Figure 9).

No matter which method is used to begin the upgrade process, after a newer firmware image is

selected to download, the firmware downloader sends the firmware image to the device. This process

is fully fault-tolerant. If the firmware upgrade process is interrupted for reasons such as a power

outage, it can be completely recovered by running the firmware downloader again and reinitiating

the download.
