To order the proper firmware version for your printer you need to know the following information:

First of all, you need to know the proper model name of your printer, for ex. SCX-3405W (another version of firmware will not work on your printer).  You can find out this information on the control panel or if you look at the configuration status reporting. There will be something like this: 

Put down in black and white:  firmware version 06, SCX3405.

To check the serial number of your printer you need to use the usbprns software  (download ) or UVCview software (download ). Or take a good look at the configuration status reporting. Don’t use the serial number indicated on the label, it often have nothing to do with real number. 

And your firmware version. You can check it too at the configuration status reporting (do not be confused with supplies report).

For print a configuration report press and hold the Stop button for about 10 seconds. If the Stop button is held for too long a supplied information report will print instead. 

This repot will be printed only if the chip will be in cartridge, it doesn’t have to be new. 

Also you can find out the information about your firmware version on the board but there can be a problem, the sticker may include the stale data (your printer could be already upgraded).
