Hello, I can get your printer running... First tell me what your original problem was before you got the Table Mismatch Download Again" error. What part did you replace? What is the flash code # you used? See my image on HB NOT INSTALLD message I have been repairing and refurbishing the P5000series Line Printers for over 6 years... If I can get a little more history on that printer... I'll have it fixed.

Have a good day! LineMatrix

If a Table Mismatch is displayed, recycle power and reflash the printer. Can get Table Mismatch after replacing CMX Board. Table Mismatch Flash Upgrade Instructions Using the printers Parallel Port: 1. Print a configuration on the printer prior to the download. After the flash is upgraded, the printer will be at Factory settings and you will need this printout to restore any non- default settings. 2. The PTX flash code is on a CD you should have received with printer. Dont have? I can email you the Flash program. 3. Turn the printer's power off. 4. If there is a cable connected to the printers serial port, disconnect it. 5. Connect a cable from the LPT1 port on a PC that has a DOS prompt mode to the printers parallel port. 6. While holding down the Online & FF(Paper Advance) keys, power up the printer. The printer will display "Waiting for Program Download". 7. At the PCs DOS prompt, go to the directory where the file is located C:\Temp and type "[Link] -pb<ENTER>" where filename is the name of the file that you downloaded in step 2. NOTE: there is a space before the -pb

8. The printer's display will keep you informed of the status of the download. When the download is complete, cycle the printers power.

Flashing a printer using a USB port

Product: ALL printers with a parallel port Symptom
Flashing a printer using a USB port

Possible Cause
New laptops do not have a parallel port

Recommend Solution
Upgrading the printer's firmware from a USB port requires either an USB-to-Parallel cable, or a USB to USB printer cable (if the printer has a USB port). These cables are available from many manufacturers. Note: Printronix does not supply this cable. Win2000/XP/2003/Vista automatically detects the cable, and installs the driver. Creating the USB Port: 1. Open the properties for any existing printer installed on the PC. View the ports currently installed on the Ports tab. You can spread the width of the Ports column to view the complete name of any USB ports already installed. Make note of the installed USB Ports. 2. Connect the USB to Parallel adapter cable to the PC and allow Windows to install the adapter cable driver automatically, or manually install the driver as required. If this is the first USB cable connected, the printer will be assigned device name USB001. If there was already a USB port installed, the adapter cable will be USB002; etc. Note: It is important to note the PCs physical USB Port you used to create the new port. If you used a different physical port on the PC then a new USB port will be created leading to confusion. Installing the Required Microsoft Loopback Adapter (Virtual): Start the Windows hardware installation wizard (Control Panel -> Add Hardware) Windows will look for a new hardware device, but it will fail to find one, as you did not actually add anything. Select Yes, I have already connected the hardware. Scroll down to the bottom of the list on the next screen to Add a new hardware device. Select Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) then select Network Adapters on the next screen. Select Manufacture -> Microsoft -> Network Adapter -> Microsoft Loopback Adapter. Select Next, and then Finished. Note: Without the Loopback adapter installed you will get an error at step 7 below. Firmware Upgrade Procedure: 1. Before connecting the USB to Parallel cable to the PC USB port see Creating a USB Port above. Connect the USB to Parallel cable to the PC USB port, and then to the printer. 2. 3. Install the Generic/Text driver in Windows (if not previously installed). In the Generic/Text printer Properties, select the Port tab, and select USB00n for the port.

4. In the Generic/Text printer Properties, select the Sharing tab, click on Shared as and note the Share_name of the printer here__________. (used in step 7). 5. Get the Computer (PC) name. Go to Control Panel and double click on System. Click on theComputer Name tab. Note the Computer_name here__________. (used in step 7). Associate a virtual parallel port (lpt2) to the Generic/Text printer: 6. Go to the DOS (command prompt).

7. Type net use lpt2: \\Computer_name\Share_name <enter>. Note: This step will fail without the Loopback adapter previously installed. Transfer a flash file to the printer: 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. Put the printer into download mode. Go to the DOS (command prompt). Extract the flash file from the .exe file. It should have a .prg extension. Type copy/b [Link] lpt2: <enter> There should be a visual indication, on the front panel of the printer, that the download has started. To delete the virtual lpt2 port type net use lpt2: /delete <enter>
