Maintaining up-to-date firmware is not a mere suggestion but a necessity. Lexmark periodically releases new firmware versions (e.g., from base version LW51.PR.P331 to LW51.PR.P523 ) that address three primary areas: security vulnerabilities, functional bugs, and feature enhancements. For example, a firmware update might patch a vulnerability in the printer’s embedded web server that could otherwise allow unauthorized access via port 443 (HTTPS). Another update might correct a bug causing duplex printing misalignment on letter-size paper. Additionally, firmware updates often introduce support for newer authentication methods or improved Mopria print standards for mobile devices.
