That's a pretty old printer so you may already have the latest firmware. Here's how to check the current firmware version to determine if you need it:
- Make sure that the front cover is closed and the power cord is plugged in.
- Turn on the printer and wait until the printer is in the ready state.
- Press Go three times within 2 seconds.
The firmware version is at the top of the printed page.
