Hi, Can anybody help me I searched forums, but couldn't possibly find a Canon IR 3045 SST, and tell me what is the process to setup a new HARD DISK. The existing one is broken and needs to be replaced. I dont't have any spare available in the country and need to do it myself. Thanks in advance my email ================================================== =============================== 1. U need toi buy a Canon OEM HDD ------- WM2-5230-000 2. U need the 3045 v33.03.01 firmware 3. U need to install Canon SST program on PC/Laptop.

U then need to download & then register iR3045 v33.03.01 firmware into SST 5. U then connect PC/Laptop to printer (w/crossover cable)----power on the iR with 2 & 8 keys on the control panel pressed until 'Download mode' is indicated onthe LCD display.

This will boot the iR with a fixed IP address of 172. Epson Printer Pm 245 Adjustment Program there. 16.1.100 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 Now give your laptop/PC an IP address of 172.16.1.10 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 6. Open SST>search in it's menu for iR3045 firmware 7. Select SINGLE in middle menu to format HDD 8. Then u can run START ASSIST to finish firmware download:cool: The HDD must be formatted while inside the printer by using the iR3045's SST Registered Firmware >HDFormat file. On the newer model machines, you must connect to the device in 'Single Mode' to format the HDD with the HDFormat file. After format>u then install the complete 3045 sst registered firmware.

Your hard disk needs to be replaced!! E602-003 is a bad sector read on the hdd, if you restart the machine it may work for a while but it WILL come back.

You need canon part number WM2-5230-000 (not sure how you would get it) it needs to be installed in the back of the machine at the top of the main body after the back cover has been removed. Once this is done you dilemma begins, Canon uses a program called 'service support tool (SST)' which is only a canon issued program, this program is the tool used to update all the software and firmware in iR devices.

Canon Ir1022a Scanner Driver. This can only be connected to a 2200 machine via usb to centronics cable with a 'nethawk driver' driving the cable. Then SST need to have the firmware for the 2200 series registered (it does not come together) within SST, then connect cable and turn the machine on at the switch on the right hand side WHILE holding keys 2 & 8 together, this will give you a black screen which only shows 'DOWNLOAD MODE' in the lower part of the screen. Then the machine is ready to accept the data. SST is extremely touchy, so if anything is not right you will get a lovely pink screen in SST saying an error code.
