- Transfer JetDirect card from LaserJet 4Mplus to LaserJet 4?
- Posted by chase_p_a@yahoo.co.uk on April 16th, 2007
Hi,
I have a LaserJet 4Mplus which has done well, but always had paper
feed issues and now is starting to smudge, too. I got a similar-
vintage LaserJet 4 for a few pounds, hopefully as a better-working
replacement.
The 4Mplus has a JetDirect card in it, which works fine. If possible,
I would like to transfer this to the LaserJet 4.
Is this likely to be possible? Any likely pit-falls or advice?

I believe both are MIO adapter; transfert is pretty sure possible
I suggest you also take time to update to firmware 08.49

Yes, the menu on the 4Mplus is called "MIO" and when something goes
wrong, it shows "MIO Error", so I guess this confirms that it is an
MIO? I'm illiterate on this terminology, by the way - what's MIO?
How does one update firmware on this? Presumably, one visits a
particular Web site and downloads something that one runs, on a
computer connected to the printer?

But only two thirds of the speed, unfortunately.
I think all of the JD cards work in either model.

Sure. Remove MIO card from LJ4M+, install in LJ4. Switch drivers to
PCL.

Yes. The HP web site has downloads for these updates.
