    IRC 3200 bootroms

    Hi,
    I have IRC 3200 with c1 colorpass .
    Im unable to configure the printer.
    On inspection I found that the bootroms are of copier (which show C in the service mode).
    Is there anyway to make the bootrom from C to N(i.r network copier to enable printing).


    Thanks.

    Unless you need to convert a lot of boot roms just buy a N boot rom.

        Thanks.
        The boot rom that's in the machine is correct. It should be a C Chip. When you have this C bootrom, this is normal. When you add a canon controller printer kit then you will have to add the N chip, meaning bootrom. If you have a fiery connected the chip remains a C bootrom.

        On the control panel LCD you should see a printer tab. When you hit that tab, hit printer status. If all is setup correctly, the rip should be at ilde, hit functions and look for run setup. The first step, is setting up the server settings, the next one is network settings, this is where you want to set up and configure your network protocol. Remember this when you have a imagepass connected you do print to the copier,you print to the fiery, then the fiery communicates with the copier to print out. Assure yourself that you see the printer tab in the LCD, this is very important.

        Post back if you have any problems. Good luck.

          Thanks Screwtape.
          I have the printer tab in the LCD.
          After I connect the c1 fiery and hit the printer tab , it still asks me to connect the
          fiery at the back side of the machine.
          and I cannont configurethe printer.

          Thanks.

            screwtape's right 'bout boot rom - also if you put 'n' chip you would also have to swap i/f board out....
            you need to reinstall f/w on rip.
            are the cables in the right place?
            and you're using crossover?

                Make sure that in service mode you have Copier>Option>IMG-CONT set to 3.

                  Should the network cable connecting the fiery and the machine be cross-over cable . ?
                  It involves 2 ethernet cables .so should both of them be crossover cables ?

                  If any of u have some book/manual/pdf please send me .


                  Thanks.

                    The crossover cable connects to the copier then to the fiery, you should see a printer icon that's embedded on the fiery right next to the port. The other port will then be for the patch cable to connect the fiery to the network. Wait a minute or two for fiery to boot up. The bootrom is correct, do not worry about that anymore, just focus on the fiery for now.

                      If you see the printer tab as hari_4848 mention then there is no need to worry about the IMG-CONT being set to 3. This will only confuse him more.

                        Hello hari,

                        You are getting lots of good advice here from everyone, If all of your cables are connected correctly,(patch cable to the network, and crossover between C1 and copier, video cable between C1 and copier), and you get the message that you need to power on your C1 or check connections, you may need to reload the system firmware for the C1. If the C1 was coming up correctly, you would be able to get into it to config it or print pages from the C1, like the config page. If it refuses to come ready, firmware load may be your next move.

                            Thanks Mr.Fixit

                            You got me right.
                            Everything is good with the connections.As you said the only query may be the correct version of firmware for the C1.
                            Do I need to load the total firmware.Also what is the latest version of firmware that can get the C1 running.


                            Thanks.

                              Hi all,
                              I managed to get a N bootrom, replaced it with the C bootrom .In the additional functions I found the network setting tab , just like in a normal 3300 copier.
                              PING is also yielding reply .The problem is that when I print from the laptop, the print comes to the IRC 3200 but it just says waiting to print or processing in the print log.I waited for a long time but didnot get the print .

                              Also, I cleared the ram by pressing "* 1 7 3 9 * " ,i found that the extra printer option in the lcd display is gone.

                              TO use the C1 colorpass we require two ethernet cables.One from the copier to the fiery and other from the fiery to the laptop.
                              Should both the cables be cross cables ? or straight cables ?

                              Please clarify.

                              Hopefully I might get a print out of the C! fiery today

                              Thanks a lot for your support.
