  • White ink upgrade (Max 2) BN-20

    Posted by Chris Jarvis on June 12, 2016 at 10:48 am

    Can anyone talk me through upgrading my BN-20 from Max White to Max 2 White?
    I’m forced to do this now.

    I just don’t want to loose anything or get it wrong.

    My on-line computer is a Mac.
    My BN-20 driver is a Windows 8 PC., which isn’t on-line.
    I have managed to download an .exe file ‘BN20Firm240.exe’
    I’m not sure what I do with that file?

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for that Chris.

    That’s the best pdf guide I’ve seen yet.

    I’ll report back on how I get on.

    It looks like I have updated the firmware on my BN-20 ok for the ‘Max 2 White’ ink.

    I used the BN20Firm240.exe
    The installer with the circle of three arrows above it on the icon, anyhow.
    I’ve got the 2.4 version now.

    I printed an existing job where the artwork is set up a white then CMYK.
    It printed ok.

    I don’t know how opaque the Max 2 is compared to the old Max white.
    I’d have to do some artwork that has white on it’s own. I only used the old white to back up other colours up to now.

    Thanks again to Chris Wool for the link.
