Restoring factory default settings

If you want to keep a list of the current menu settings for reference, then print a menu settings page before restoring the factory default settings. For more information, see Printing a menu settings page.

If you want a more comprehensive method of restoring the printer factory default settings, then perform the Wipe All Settings option. For more information, see Erasing non-volatile memory.

Warning—Potential Damage: Restoring factory defaults returns most printer settings to the original factory default settings. Exceptions include the display language, custom sizes and messages, and Network/Port menu settings. All downloads stored in the RAM are deleted.

From the printer control panel, navigate to:

the menu button > Settings > the select button > General Settings > the select button > Factory Defaults > the select button > Restore Now > the select button
