Notes:
(1)  Only the ARPB2a can be installed in an AR287/337/407/507.  If an
ARPB2 or ARPB2+ is installed, an “F9” error will occur.
(2)  An existing ARPB2 or ARPB2+ installed in an AR250/280/285/286/335/
336/405/505 can be upgraded into an ARPB2a. The Boot & Program
/Font firmware within the printer board will require updating to Boot v2.04
and Program/Font v4.37.  This is advisable as you then benefit from any
bug fixes that are included in the later firmware and v4 printer drivers.
(3)  When upgrading the printer board firmware to v2.04/4.37 it is very
important to follow the correct upgrade instructions.
Please ensure you download and read the new modified Flash
Upgrade procedure. If the correct upgrade procedure is not
followed, the printer board could be made unusable and re-flashing
is then impossible.
The ARPB2a firmware can be downloaded from the Sharp Technical
Web site and can be found in the Copier/ARProduct/ARPB2a area.
