HP CM8060/8050 Color MFP with Edgeline Technology Service and Support Training NVM and Firmware
NVM and Firmware • Non-volatile memory (NVM) • Firmware upgrade n
Topic 1: Non-volatile memory • Non-volatile memory (NVM) is data that is preserved in the MFP through a power cycle or power loss • Stored in the following locations: • Engine Main PCA (A5) • Scanner Control PCA (A501) • ADF Control PCA (A401) • Finisher Main PCA (A200) • MFP Coprocessor hard drive • Formatter Main PCA (contains NVRAM) and hard drive
Types of NVM data • Customer data – Includes stored jobs, digital send information (email addresses, names, networking information, MFP IP address) • For privacy and security, service and support staff cannot handle customer data! • Customer data is backed up and restored by system administrator • Machine data – Job settings, calibration values, usage counters, system logs, model configuration • Machine data is backed up and restored by service personnel
Backup modes for NVM machine data • Internal • Stored on formatter hard disk • Performed by CDFT-E or CDFT-L • Performed automatically on a regular basis (you must enable this – defaults to 1x a week) • External • Stored on CD, USB device, or laptop • Performed by CDFT-L or CDFT-E (USB only) • Keep backup CD with MFP (recommended)

Topic 2: Perform firmware upgrade • 2-step process: • Download firmware image file to a buffer in the MFP, using any of the following: • When in startup menu: • Download from CDFT-L using USB 2.0 (no USB flash drive) • When MFP is in “ready” state: • CDFT-L using LAN • FTP • CDFT-L using USB (not recommended, slow) • HP Web Jetadmin • Upgrade firmware – happens automatically during bootup if MFP detects different firmware version in buffer
Firmware upgrade process Reboot Download firmware using USB OR Download firmware from CDFT-L, FTP, etc. System ready Start boot Startup Menu Firmware is upgraded automatically (do not remove power during this process)
