Resetting the Printer
Several of the network configuration procedures require you to reset the printer.
There are several ways to reset the printer:
■ Turn the printer off, then back on again.
■ With a TCP/IP connection and a World Wide Web browser, you can use
PhaserLink Printer Management Software; see “Resetting the printer:
PhaserLink Printer Management Software” on page 167.
■ PC and UNIX users can send the PostScript file RESET.PS from the
printer’s utilities software.
■ Macintosh users can reset the printer using the Apple Printer Utility. See
“Resetting your printer using the Apple Printer Utility” on page 168.
Resetting the printer by any of these methods restores the printer to its power-on
conditions (not its factory default conditions). The power-on conditions include any
custom changes made to the printer that are stored in the printer’s non-volatile
memory and are therefore persistent across printer power cycles. For example, the
printer’s name is a power-on condition that is not altered by resetting the printer.
