Update Firmware MFPB C252

[Miguelinux]

Hi,

I`m here again...

I have 3 CF, one of them i´m sure that have to work... but i can´t get it. I´m using Firmware Imaging Toolkit v2.5.3. At first i format the card with the utility and then i write the firmware and i always get the same screen in the machine (C252) "Invalid card"

I have readen some about other way to build the card, using "mini-cygwin".

Can someone send me another version of imaging toolkit or explain me step by step how to use cygwin.

Thanks you in advance

I think the card has to be 128mg's or less if not it will not work. if its in the right size range try formatting it, use "fat" not Fat 32.

Hi Mitchl,

Yes i know. I have two 128Mb CF and one 256Mb CF (the second one is in the list of compatible cards to do it that i have readen in another post). I tried with all of them to format using Windows and using the Konica firmware imaging tool, in fat, fat32, in windows 7 and windows XP, writting the firmware with the konica utility and doing it with copy/paste.

I think that I tried all the ways with the things that I have... this is the reason why i´m typing here again... i never want to disturb you.

Thanks for your reply

Can someone write me the steps to do the CF mini-cygwin way?

Are you sure you are using C252 firmware, not C250. They are different and will give the same error.

I'm trying with the firmware that someone sent me in this post. I supose that is the correct. Can someone send me again the NVRAM firmware recovery for BIZHUB C252.

Thanks in advance for your help.

C252 firmware starts "4038-F0000-G10-XX-XXX"
C250 firmware starts "4038-F0000-G00-XX-XXX"

If it is special firmware
C252 starts "4038-F0000-GXX-K1-XXX"
C250 starts "4038-F0000-GXX-K0-XXX"
Hope this helps

I've sent him the files 3 or 4 times, this file 4038-F000-GCN-G4-000.EXE which is the 1.81mb NVRAM recovery program for the C250/252. I figure being an executable his anti-virus is the problem. I've sent it directly attached to an email and also VIA a Hightail link which is a pay upload download service, dont know what else to do for the guy??????
