I am looking for a firmware module for my Laserjet 3200.
In USA and Canada, HP send it for free (cause the original was
defective on all the printers), but not here in Europe.
If you have one, please, send an e-mail to:

Thank you in advance.

It's on the HP web pile:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=1 8972&prodSeriesId=24354&prodNameId=21875&swEnvOID= 24&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=lj-2479-2


If you can't get to the US site, there are other sites that also have
the utility available:

I've got a couple of 3200s. The firmware is crap. The module
corrupts easily, and the only fix is to replace it. Once it goes bad,
you can't use the flash utility to download. Hp replaced both of mine
for the cost of a service call ($25), but that was some time ago.


Yes, i am looking for the memory module, not the software.
But here in Europe, HP doesn't send the module as a free replacement, we
must pay for it (ond for the service call, of course).

Now one of my machines reports a '79 service error' on occasion,
especially after a power loss, but usually boots back up after a
complete power cycle. I've replaced the module yet again with one
from a parts machine, and when this one goes...so does the printer.


If you have a firmware card (or you can find one), please, send me a
message.
TIA

I can't get it to work properly with XP anyway, despite downloading
all the patches....


Apart from the firmware problem, we never had a problem with this printer.
But we only use it as a lan printer and to manually send faxes.
What kind of problem do you have?

The scanner is not even 'there' according to XP. The resident software
keeps losing track of the the printer itself; popping up messages that
communication has been lost until I unload the manager. I get a
complete software crash every time I try to use any of the functions in
that package anyway.
