Resetting the Printer
When you reset the printer, you return it to the factory default
settings. Resetting the printer removes all files used to store settings.
But, it does not reset settings that have already been read when the
files. So, wireless communication settings, such as SSID and keys
retain their values from the previous start. However, the next reboot
resets them to the factory default values.
Resetting the printer also does not change the selected printer
language (Fingerprint, IPL, ZSim, or DSim).
There are two ways to reset the printer:
• Insert a special CompactFlash memory card and restart the
printer.
• Use the printer’s keypad.
To reset the printer using the keypad
1 Turn off the printer.
2 Open the right cover and lift the printhead.
3 Turn on the printer and press and hold the I key until the
printer beeps.
4 Quickly press the following keys in sequence:
D U U L
The following message appears:
Factory Default?
Enter=Yes ESC=No
5 Within 10 seconds, press E to reset the printer to its factory
default settings. The parameters are reset and the printer
continues the normal startup process.
If you do not press E within 10 seconds, the normal startup
continues and the printer is not reset.
