Just received a notification from the HP Developers Network:
HP would like to announce a new firmware release for HP Designjet Z6100 printers. The main change that may interest you in order to improve your solution is:
- Added some new halftone print modes in glossy media types
Please read the Release Notes information that you can see when you download the firmware release (see below for instructions on how to download it) for a list of new features and fixed issues.
HOW TO DOWNLOAD THE NEW FIRMWARE RELEASE GG-7.0.0.3
You can download it from:
- HP Designjet Online website (
http://www.hp.com/go/designjet - Select the printer, then click "Support & Drivers" and finally click "System Maintenance (Firmware)" )
- The printer Embedded Web Server (http://<printer_ip> - Setup tab, then click Firmware Update on left menu, and finally click the link to Designjet Online on Step 1).
I own a Z3100 rather than a Z6100. The notice does not say when the Z3100 update will be released.
hope this helps
Jim
