Problem

Symptoms: The customer complains that we are wearing out his Firmware reprogrammer on his Kyocera. His manual (page 6-2) tells him the FRPL EE Prom will wear out after it has been reset 10,000 times. He says that our driver should not reset the FRPL at the beginning and the end of each job and that it takes five seconds more to print because of the firmware being reset. Solutions: The initialization command includes a command to turn off timeouts. This command can only be sent 10,000 times before it damages the printer. Kyocera has instructed us to not change it as this may cause a page to eject before the job is complete or other problems when printing large graphics. They may however delete this code, but they need to make sure their printer is set for HP emulation. To delete the code, edit his ALL file/printer in the PTR program,

      1.      Type PTR at a DOS prompt
      2.      Press Shift-F10 to retrieve the .ALL file, or .PRS file
      3.      Highlight the printer and Enter
      4.      Highlight Initialize and Reset and Enter
      5.      Highlight Initialize at Start of Print Job
      6.      Delete prs"FRPO H9,0;EXIT;"
      7.      For Reset at End of Print job delete prs"FRPO H9,3;EXIT;"
      8.      Exit save and update
