Using a USB Host for Firmware Updates

Using a USB Host for Firmware Updates

The USB host port allows you to connect an USB Flash drive to the printer to perform firmware updates.
Zebra "mirror" functions enable you to easily accomplish important printer management tasks.
For example, you can update the printer firmware by downloading the latest version from zebra.com, copying the files to a USB Flash drive (of up to a 1 TB storage capacity), connecting the USB drive to the printer, and uploading them to printer memory.
See the printer ZPL Programming Guide for information on the Mirror and Set-Get-Do (

) SGD commands.
