    Hi,

    The button you are pressing is correct, I might be wrong but I think that only works for Z400e range. You's is WinXPe system so it will need a external SCSI CD drive plus the system CD to reload.

    Does your Z500e allow you to plug on a monitor? No harm trying it with a keyboard to see if it has an option to restore.

    In fact it permits to connect a monitor. i did that. and it have a fiery image. but i dinīt explore more than that.... maybe i can do something with keyboard. i know z40 have the system restore on another partition on HDD drive. my hope is this have this restore too. because i donīt have the software cd for this fiery. and i donīt have the scsi cdrom... i have an old z40 too that i cannot restore. because i donīt have this scsi cdrom.... this z40 i will try to clone the hard drive from another z40 working. but for this z500 i donīt have acess to a working one...
    thank you for your help.

    could just be a defective SCSI PCB Assembly.


    ColorPASS Z40 / Z40e / Z20e / Z400e / Z500e / Z4500 / Z4600 / Z3000 models do NOT support connecting the Advanced GUI Kit from Canon or any monitor, mouse, or keyboard.

    ================================================== ====

    An external SCSI CD-ROM drive is required. Connect the CD-ROM drive with a SCSI-2 cable to the SCSI port on the back of the ColorPASS. Power on the CD-ROM drive. Place the system software CD in the drive and turn on the ColorPASS. The RIP should then prompt you to install software.


    The ColorPASS Z800 / Z7400 / Z7500 / Z7000 / Z7100 / Z6000 / Z6100 / Z5400 / Z5100 / Z5000 / Z4600 / Z4500 / Z650 / Z600 / Z500e come with a CD to restore the system software from backup.

    These ColorPASS models do not have a Restore from Backup option built in (like the 1st generation ColorPASS-Z series controllers), so the Restore from Backup CD must be used to perform a restore from backup.

    You cannot perform a Restore from Backup on the ColorPASS Z500e without the Restore/Update CD.
