    Help reinstalling system software on Toshiba 3005ac

    Respects all, the posts on this printer have been invaluable to me out in the past, but now I made a silly fatal mistake and I hope someone can help. My Toshiba Estudio 3005ac - I was messing around trying to reset factory settings and I apparently wiped the hard drive Getting F510, F101 etc errors - I am following service manual but doesn't appear any way to "reinstall the system software" - at least not without downloading additional firmware or software to a USB? I cannot find any files anywhere online, I seen a bunch of fraud-lookin whatsapp contacts, but can anyone help me out? Where can these files be found? If the file is big or difficult to share, I can provide an easy web upload link to one of my servers. Please help - printernet@cock.li

    I do not have what you need . But, someone can also use WeTransfer (2GB and smaller) or SendTransfer (10GB or smaller) to get the stuff to you. Just a couple of options.

      OK, extensive digging happen to find a website with a file named "e-STUDIO5005AC_L6.71_1800.zip" described as "Firmware-e-STUDIO 2505AC/3005AC/3505AC/4505AC/5005AC". Contains these files below. I copied to a FAT32-formatted USB but 49 Firmware Update says "update data folder not present in USB device". It's giving F520 the hard drive looks blank, I'm wondering if this is the right file or I'm not using it correctly?

        Following up on this lil panic - I was able to get the firmware update working - that firmware file on that sketchy site was correct, my problem was I tried copying these files in the USB root directory, instead of inside the original subfolder with the proper model number. Back online, thanks all

          For obvious reasons, I can't supply the firmware, but the folder should be named: 2505AC_5005AC
