MFP resets
Use the following information to perform system-wide reset procedures. Customers do not have
access to this information.
Cold reset
A cold reset unlocks menus that have been previously locked and resets all control-panel menu
items to the factory defaults. A cold reset does not clear the values in the service menu, such as the
serial number and the page counts.
NOTE Before performing a cold reset, print a menu map and a configuration page. See
Information pages. Use the information on these pages to reset customer-specific settings.
CAUTION All HP Jetdirect settings are also reset. Be sure to print a configuration page
before performing a cold reset. Make note of the IP address that is listed on the Jetdirect
configuration page. You will need to restore the IP address after performing a cold reset. See
Configuring and verifying an IP address.
To perform a cold reset
1 Turn the MFP off and then on.
2 When the memory count appears on the control-panel display, press and hold 6 until all three
LEDs flash once and then stay on. This might take up to 20 seconds.
3 Press 3 four times until COLD RESET appears on the control-panel display.
4 Press 6 one time. The MFP continues its initialization sequence.
NVRAM initialization
NOTE If an HP LaserJet analog fax accessory 300 is installed, performing an NVRAM
initialization can cause the MFP to violate local telephone regulations. Reset the language and
country/region after performing NVRAM initialization. For more information, see the
HP LaserJet Analog Fax Accessory 300 Service Manual.
Before performing an NVRAM initialization, print a menu map and a configuration page. See
Information pages. Use the information on these pages to reset any customer-specific settings.
CAUTION All HP Jetdirect settings are also reset. Be sure to print a configuration page
before performing a cold reset. Make note of the IP address that is listed on the Jetdirect
configuration page. You will need to restore the IP address after performing a cold reset. See
Configuring and verifying an IP address.
Performing an NVRAM initialization resets the following settings and information:
■ All menu settings are reset to factory default values, including the fax header and company name.
■ All faxes in memory are erased.
■ All speed-dials, group-dials, and phonebook entries are erased.
■ All localization settings, including language and country/region, are reset.
