    bizhub C250 firmware installation

    Hi, i have a firmware of bizhub C250 and a 128mb CF card SanDisk. I was trying to update a machine (bizhub C250). At first, i use the Firmware Imaging Toolkit and i successfully installed the firmware to the card but when inserted to the machine it says:

    "Error. This is Invalid card. Please make sure the card."

    I try using Cygwin but on the command window it always says:

    "Make CompactFlash Image to Download F/W for Rhein. Please install Cygwin or ensure your environment setting."

    By the way, i'm using windows 8 64bit and i'm thinking that the procedure maybe different. May i know a step by step procedure on using cygwin? Thank you very much.

      You most likely have an incompatible SanDisk CF card even though you have a 128mb card. I and others, have had this problem before with this card (its just one of those imponderable Konica idiosyncrasies...I guess)
      I use these. You can find them cheaper if you shop around.

      If you have the right CF card and still need help with Cygwin let me know, but I doubt it will help an invalid card error.

      Also, if you formatted the card you might as well simply buy another one.

          Format it Fat 16 and it should work.
          Color is not 4 times harder... it's 65,000 times harder. They call it "TECH MODE" for a reason. I have manual's and firmware for ya, course... you are going to have to earn it.

                Use program "Firmware IMaging Toolkit 2006" to write it or rewrite and make sure that u have CF ( i use compact flash 256MB kingston and work on all machines). Then write firmware to CF via ToolKit. Turn off Machine and insert CF with firmware to slot in machine. Turn on and select which one FW u want write or rW.
