Other Resets
Power On Reset -- and similar resets
When the printer is turned on, the following events occur:
• Fixed default settings are set to factory set values.
• Portions of printer memory that store page, font, and macro
information are cleared.
Other resets which cause similar events:
• NPA Cold Start (Front Panel, 01 or 03).
• INA Hard Reset
For these resets, currently active pages are discarded and
emulators are reset.
INIT * -- Parallel Interface Initialization
The INIT * signal causes the printer to be initialized as follows
(unless the INIT * signal is disabled by its variable default setting):
• Data received before reception of an INIT * signal is printed, and
then initialization takes place.
• Variable default settings are returned to values stored in
NVRAM.
• Fixed default settings are reset to factory set values.
• Downloaded fonts and macros with permanent status are
retained.
• Downloaded fonts and macros with temporary status are
deleted.
• Variable default settings for paper sizes become the active
default formatting sizes.
• The link buffer is left intact.
INIT * is not honored while Hex Trace is active. Receiving INIT *
causes the parallel interface to go busy. The INIT * is processed
when the parallel interface becomes active and all preceding
characters have been processed.
