Firmware upgrade warning:
- It may take up to 20 minutes to update devices to FW7 code if the code level currently on the device is FW2 or FW3 based
- This is a one-time issue transitioning the device from FW2 or FW3 to FW7
- 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

Firmware upgrade procedure:

- Devices running ATL.03x.yyy or ATL.02x.yyy firmware (CS72x/CX72x and equivalents) must first update to an intermediate release before updating to FW7
- The intermediate release needed is CSTAT.041.090 or CXTAT.041.090, from there the firmware can be updated directly to FW7
- Contact Lexmark Technical Support to obtain this release

Firmware downgrade warning:

- It is strongly recommended that a firmware downgrade is NOT performed.
- Downgrading firmware from newer major firmware ECs to older major firmware ECs will result in the loss of Apps, Security Features, and Settings.
- Contact Lexmark Technical Support and see KB Article SO8017 for more information on the impacts of downgrading.
- Ensure the firmware you download is the correct one for the product you have

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 or “lite feature set” (T = touch screen, 4.3” or larger screen, N = non-touch screen 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
- Ensure the firmware you download is the correct one for the product you have 

About Print and Scanner Bundle Packages:

This package includes several drivers required by imaging devices, such as Printer Command Language (PCL), PostScript (PS), XML Paper Specification (XPS), Scanner, Printer, TWAIN, and other related software.

With them installed, systems will be able to recognize the imaging device properly, and to make use of all its advanced features and functions.

To initiate the installation, first make sure this release is compatible with your device model and system configuration. Once that out of the way, get the downloadable package, extract it if necessary, run the available installer(s), and follow the instructions displayed on-screen for a complete and successful installation.

After the installation has finished, don't forget to perform a system reboot to allow all changes to take effect properly.
