What happened?

While flashing firmware to your printer an error might occur, and the screen will display the following message: "Firmware/printer versions do not match! You are trying to flash FW meant for another revision of the Buddy board".

Error name: Unsupported printer version

Error code: #12611

This error is shown if you are trying to flash a version of the firmware that was not meant for the Buddy board.

How to fix it?

Download the firmware and bootloader, and transfer it to your USB drive. Make sure to unmount the drive from your operating system before physically removing it.

Insert the USB drive back into the printer and restart it to initiate the flashing procedure. In case the procedure does not start, reboot the printer using the reset button directly next to the knob, and while the printer is booting up, press once the rotating knob (more about this on alternative method).

If the issue persists, the problem might be in the USB flash drive. Find any other USB drive in your household, make sure it is formatted to FAT32, copy both firmware files, and repeat the previously described procedure.
