Reset to factory defaults

After you have configured the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server, the settings are saved in memory.

If you lose communication with the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server, or if it fails to operate properly, you might need to reset the print server to its factory-default configuration. This is called a cold reset.

NOTE: Resetting the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server to factory-default settings will cause the print server to lose its wireless connection to your network. Reconfiguration of wireless network settings and reinstallation of the print server will be required.

Parameters on the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server can be reset to factory default values using the following procedures.

HP LaserJet printer/MFP reset

In most cases, the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server is reset to factory defaults when factory settings are reset on the printer/MFP.

CAUTION: Be sure to print an HP Jetdirect configuration page before performing a reset. Resetting the printer clears all data from the printer memory and resets all printer settings, including network configurations, to their factory default values. After a reset, users will be affected due to changes in user-specified printer settings. Network systems will lose their connection to the printer.

After a reset, print an HP Jetdirect configuration page to confirm that factory-default values were assigned. You must now re-configure the HP Jetdirect 2700w Print Server. See Configure the print server using the HP Embedded Web Server on page 6.
