This menu item is used to return most of the control panel settings back to their factory

 

settings.

 

When you choose to restore the factory default settings:

 

• All downloaded resources (fonts, macros, symbol sets) in printer memory (RAM) are

 

deleted. (Resources residing in flash memory or on hard disk are unaffected.)

 

• All menu settings are returned to the factory default values except:

 

Display Language

 

Job Buffer Size

 

– All settings in the Parallel Menu, Serial Menu, Fax Menu, Network Menu, USB Menu,

 

 

Infrared Menu, and LocalTalk Menu.

 

Note: An asterisk (*) appears next to the factory default value for each of the menu items

 

listed in this chapter.

 

 

 

 

Format Flash

Yes

 

 

 

No

 

 

 

 

 

 

Formatting flash memory deletes all resources (fonts, macros) stored in flash memory and

 

prepares flash memory to receive new resources. You may want to select Print Directory

 

before you format the flash memory to determine what resources, if any, are stored in flash.

 

The Format Flash menu item is not displayed if the flash memory is Read/Write or Write

 

protected.

 

Warning: If you select Format Flash and then press Go, any data stored in flash memory is

 

lost. Do not turn the printer off while the flash is formatting.

 

 

 

 

Defragment Flash

Yes

 

 

 

No

 

 

Defragmentation offers a method where the user can reclaim the space occupied by a deleted resource without reformatting the entire flash memory device. During defragmentation the printer firmware copies all undeleted resources to printer memory, and then reformats the flash. Once the format operation is complete, the firmware loads all the undeleted resources back on the flash memory.

The defragment flash menu item is not displayed if the installed option is defective or is Read/ Write or Write protected.
