This new firmware provides a Web connection capability for HP Designjet T2300 eMFP and provides new printing
and scanning workflows with HP ePrint & Share for all ePrinters and eMFP. This document explains all fixes and
enhancements in detail.
With the introduction of the HP Designjet T1300 and T790 ePrinters, there is a new firmware version MU_01_02_32.5
available for the following products: T1300, T790 ePrinter Series and T2300 eMFP.
For upgrading the HP Designjet T1300/T790 ePrinters: This upgrade can be triggered automatically by
going to Set up , Updates , Check from the touch screen.
For upgrading the T2300 eMFP: This initial upgrade must be performed by using the Embedded Web Server

Once this upgrade has been performed the next upgrade can be performed using the check method
described above.
NOTE: If you are using the Firefox or Safari explorers you might experience an EWS timeout while installing the
firmware due to the size of the firmware package. However, the release will still be correctly installed on the device.
This issue is already a known issue. To check the firmware has correctly installed go to the EWS , Set up , Updates ,
Release History . If the firmware is not the latest one, it is recommended to use a USB stick to perform the firmware

If any of the connectivity parameters are incorrect or a test fails, the wizard will stop and display an error message
which can be selected. Shown below is just one scenario where the connection wizard can be useful in
troubleshooting and successfully resolving an internet connection issue. The example below describes what to do if
the wizard detected that the proxy configuration setting is incorrect.

Image quality issues: wrinkles
For high density area fills using plain or coated paper with low humidity conditions, we have observed that using
previous firmware releases you might experience wrinkles in the media. If the wrinkles are very severe, you can also
have printhead crashes. The new firmware release has a fix for these issue changing internal media settings.

Using this latest firmware release AutoSend information is localized in the EWS.
Fixes from previous firmware release ZL.01.00.10.3 (for the T2300 eMFP)
It is now possible to define if the scanned page is ejected from the front of the printer or from the rear of the
printer.
The scan queue can now be hidden so that users do not have access to preview the files in the queue, or the
ability to copy them.
From the Embedded Web Server you can now set the printer to send an e-mail when there is a problem with
the printer, for example when the printer is out of ink.
Better detection and error reporting of media jam issues in the scanner.
In some cases, there was a change of the active roll selection when the printer was turned off and on. This
issue has been solved.
The error message has been improved if there is a firmware upgrade failure using FireFox or Safari. In some
cases, it used to fail when using firmware packages bigger than 800MB, and the message about why it failed
was confusing.
If SNMP was disabled and a new JetDirect card was installed the printer would not initialize.
We have improved the method used to report the printer as a CD-ROM, to avoid errors in Windows if the user
tried to write to the drive (the CD-ROM reported by the printer).
