I have four (4) of these, all MFW281FDW's.
They are assigned static IP's on the same LAN.
I've gotten three of them to update from the front panel, but the last one will not update.
I've rebooted it, powered it down, reset it - still get "cannot update" from the front panel; or "Firmware Transfer Error" when I use the HP Firmware updater.
Current info:
Product Name: | HP Color LaserJet MFP M281fdw |
Formatter Number: | 5L400FQ |
Serial Number: | [Personal Information Removed] |
Cartridge Index: | TPFO PFCF |
Service ID: | 10092 |
Firmware Datecode: | 20200612 |
Control Panel Version: | 0x04 |
Disable Fax: | No |
