Printer Reset Command

	Receipt of the Printer Reset command restores the User Default
	Environment, deletes temporary fonts, macros, user-defined symbol
	sets and patterns. It also prints any partial pages of data which may
	have been received.
	? E
Notes	Hewlett-Packard strongly recommends the use of both the ? E
	command and the ?%–12345Xcommand (Universal Exit
	Language/Start of PJL — also referred to as the UEL Command) at
	the beginning and end of each job. (The order of these commands is
	critical. Refer to Table 4-1 for an example.)
	The UEL Command (?%–12345X) has the same effect as the ? E
	command, and also enters PJL Mode of operation for printers that
	support PJL (refer to the next section, "“Universal Exit Language
	Command” for more information). The ? E command should be
	included to ensure backward compatibility (the UEL command is
	ignored if received by a printer that does not support PJL).
