Yes guys thats what i am doing. By doing this i get the download screen up with no other options. I am at a pure loss with this service mode!!! When using SST i get keep getting the message on the right handside "The machine must be started by holding down 1and 7 keys for download mode of service mode"

pure frustrated but really appreciating the help guys.

thanks

1 and 7 is an alternate method called safe mode.
when it boots by holding 1 and 7
go *28*
function
system
download
ok

if SST is asking you to do safe mode you should be able to ignore it and continue your download
if your ip matches the regular ip address.

172.16.1.100 is the safe mode address of your copier
yuo need to set your laptop address to 172.16.1 .xxx (xxx being any other relevant number for the last octet)

I dont not get those options after i go into download mode. Just a black screen which says download mode at the bottom

wow....... turn copier off, then turn copier on (with main power switch) do not hold down any keys, the depress the * (also called the additional functions key) and release it, then depress the 2 and 8 (together) then release them, then depress the * (additional functions key) and release you should be in the service mode of the copier....then follow what has been siad previously to get to download mode....

instructions already posted>
USER MODE KEY*/ADD FUNCTION KEY* all same Crap

poster is confusing Safe Mode with SERVICE MODE

If u can't get into service mode> one of those KEYS is stuck or broken> u should here a slight click when depressed-

what is your main GOAL? is just to make it print?
Are you trying to download firmware because you want to, or because the copier has a problem?

Hi, thanks for your help but still no joy. As i stated i am new to the canon ir105. I have tried adding it through a network cable directly(using a crossover) from my laptop to the ir105. I cant seem to get an i.p address off the 105! is the default 172.16.1.100? do you know how to get the configuration page off the ir105?

Thanks again

Teckat do you have graphics of how to print config page and how to set up ip address

Hi Guys, sorry for the late reply but ive been away for a bit. When i go to network settings the only option after is tcp/ip settings then i.p address range settings. Is there anything i can do to get the other network settings i need?

Thanks
