I've got a bad drive and need to replace it.
I understand I should do the firmware too.
Where can I get these?
Thanks!

Hi. You cannot install firmware on a new hdd for this model. The HDD format file is encrypted,so you can't format the HDD. The only thing to do is to clone a working HDD from another machine.
Hi. All you need is the print boot rom, 256MB ram, fax kit and universal send kit. The firmware is the same regardless of the options that are installed.
I beg to differ,, the hard drive can be formatted using SST, just make sure to use the same drive model in the copier, or seek out the listing I created that lists the current hard drive models for each copier out there. Cloning a failing drive can recreate corrupted software, a clean install is always the best advice.
Hey Coling>>that info is not correct *************** u can format any HDD
On these models only !!!!!!!!!
imageRUNNER 105+ / 9070 / 8070 / 85+
imageRUNNER 4570 / 3570 / 2870 / 2270
If a new HDD is installed with a Boot Rom version lower than v6.36, the system software cannot be installed, and the Boot Rom cannot be upgraded.
Solution :
Listed below are a few solutions for this issue.
1. Carry and use a copier Boot Rom v6.36 or higher to format and install the System Software to the new HDD. The original Boot Rom [C or N] now can be upgraded, after flashing the System Software. Be sure the Boot Rom is model specific.
2. Bring the original Boot Rom that is lower than v6.36 to a known working machine and flash it to v6.36 or higher. Install the Boot Rom back into the original machine, format and install the System software.
Thanks for that info
Hi. Sorry, my statement should have read:You cannot install firmware on any type of HDD. I did not mean that the failing drive should be cloned!!
