    many vendors sell other manufactures equipment with their name on it, this just happens to be a Lexmark device with a KM badge on it. Auto dealers do the same thing..

    I've heard French techs are really helpful. Makes me wonder why his woes aren't answered...

    "Wouldn't it be fun to install firmware! ... even though I have no idea what I'm doing ... have no specific objective ... and will most likely make the machine a brick."

    You must be an IT guy. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    Explain how he could 'brick it' I'd be interested to hear your opinion ?

    Wrong firmware, no the machine won't except it.

    I guess the only way would be powering the machine off half way through the update, but even then starting the update again would resolve the issue.

    The firmware update process is covered in most service manuals so simply follow this procedure to the letter, if you can read you can't go wrong.

    Those Lexy 4050 are totally messed. Just read what emujo wrote. You have to be very carefull with combination of versions on:
    1. Engine Firmware
    2. Sub controller firmware
    3. Main controller firmware

    Re: Bizhub 4050 firmware information ?

    Hi,
    I still don't get it how you can positively assume this a lexmark machine. I browse all day and nowhere i've seen that the Konica Minolta Bizhub 4050 belongs to Lexmark ! Here is a picture of the rear label:

    I might be wrong, if so give me a proof, it's definitily the gesture i need to believe !
    Oh, by the way, i'm not an IT guy, but i'm at ease with technologies...
