Printer Reset
Clearing some error conditions requires that you reset
(reinitialize) the printer. To do this:
1Press and release SEL (1) to take the printer off-line.
The SEL light goes out.
2Press and hold SHIFT (2), then press the RESET/
CHARACTER PITCH key.
Important!
Pressing SHIFT + RESET reinitializes the printer, but does not
affect any menu settings and does not reset the printer to the
factory defaults. For information on resetting the printer to
the factory defaults, see “Resetting the Menu to the Factory
Defaults” later in this chapter.
