Re: firmware

I use a 16GB USB flash drive, which seems to work fine.

Re: firmware

The older MXM350/450s would have a hard limit of 2GB capacity on any flash drive being used for f/w updates (prior to another f/w update it was restricted to 1GB) in FAT16 format.

New machines have no such capacities to my knowledge and will read any drive formatted in FAT32.

Re: firmware

Have had some issues with USB larger than 2GB. You just have to try them out to see if they will work. What I found interesting was I would have a USB drive work on one copier but not on another in the same series of machines! Very annoying. That's why I have several with me at all times.

Good luck.

Almost forgot. If you're having a problem seeing the sfu file in a folder on your USB drive try moving the file to the root directory. Have come across this problem several times.
