Using the Printer’s Reset Button

Using the Printer’s Reset Button
The printer’s reset button can restore the printer or network (the internal print server) to
factory default configuration.
By pressing and holding the reset button for one (1) or more seconds, the printer will enter a
reset sequence and the status light will begin blinking every second until released. Releasing
the button at the appropriate time tells the printer which reset function to perform.The table
below describes the reset modes and sequence timing.
In order to reset the printer and network using the reset button, you must perform two separate
reset actions: a printer reset (press and hold the button 1-5 seconds) and a network reset (press
and hold the button 6-10 seconds). See the Feed Button Modes on page 77 to reset both printer
and it’s print server at the same time using the 4-flash Feed Button mode.
