Product: Designjet 800
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP

Ive been trying to upgrade my firmware but it says I cannot upgrade it, I get a warning that the printers current firmware version must be A.02.06 or higher. The version on the printer is only A.02.05. Where do I go from here?
There is a thread that says its solved, by selecting Windows XP and selecting the firmware from there which is version 4.
My question is, can i upgrade straight from version A.02.05 to version A.04.02 ?
Its imperative I know the answer to this as I've hear people brick their designjet over updating the firmware version in leaps.

Thanks in advance.

You can instal firmware from A.02.05 to A.04.02 

 

But if you want to instal the latest firmware A.05.01 then you can't jump from A.02.05 to A.05.01.
