I was a copier/printer tech for almost 45 years.
I was having a weird intermittent problem with
finisher on a copier. I called their tech support
and they said to update the finisher firmware.
So I did that and it seemed to fix the problem.
A few days later one of my coworkers takes a
call on this machine and had to replace the
finisher board. The update had blown it. He also
reinstalled the previous level of firmware. He told
me the manufacturer was going to issue bulletin
saying to not install that firmware.
