Xerox Work Centre 4150 software installation read me

1. Purpose
The purpose of this ReadMe is to enable System Administrators to perform software upgrades to a WorkCentre 4150 printers. The upgrade process will take up to half an hour. The WorkCentre will be unavailable for customer use during this time. Please make sure that the WorkCentre is free of faults and jams before starting the upgrade.

2. Upgrade Requirements
To perform this upgrade, the following will be required: a. The machine software (.hd) file. b. The pre-upgrade patch (MCB_V1010208PN.hd) file. This will fix the issue with losing LDAP settings that was introduced in release 10.100.20.000. NOTE: If the current device software version is 10.100.20.000 or later, the pre-upgrade patch is not needed. c. The machine must be configured to allow customer software upgrade. This is archived through the customer admin tools menu on the printer local user interface. To enable this feature select the access button, located on the printer local user interface and then enter the machine administrator password. Once in the tools menu press the more button in the display and select the Customer Software Upgrade button displayed and then select the enable button. Exit the tools menu.
