Erasing volatile memory
The volatile memory (RAM) installed in your printer requires a power source to retain information. To erase the
buered data, simply turn o the printer.
Erasing non‑volatile memory
Erase individual settings, device and network settings, security settings, and embedded solutions by following
these steps:
1 Turn o the printer.
2 Hold down 2 and 6 on the keypad while turning the printer on. Release the buttons only when the screen
with the progress bar appears.
The printer performs a power-on sequence, and then the
Configuration
menu appears. When the printer is
fully turned on, a list of functions appears on the printer display.
3 Press the up or down arrow button until Wipe All Settings appears.
The printer will restart several times during this process.
Note: Wipe All Settings securely removes device settings, solutions, jobs, and passwords from the printer
memory.
4 Navigate to:
Back > Exit Config Menu
The printer will perform a power‑on reset, and then return to normal operating mode.
