Resetting Printers
Sometimes the printer receives mixed signals and loses its ability
to communicate. If this happens, reset the printer and attempt
communication again. To reset the printer, turn off the printer,
wait 15 seconds, and turn it back on.
When you turn off the printer, all the information set through the
online configuration packets (A-M) is saved. See the sections in
Chapter 2, "Configuring the Printer," for more information about
each packet.
If You Receive an Error Message
Any time you receive a message that is not described in this
manual, or the recommended action does not solve the problem,
