5.Press the Paper Feed switch and hold it down. Continue holding all three switches down. In about three seconds you will hear a beep tone signaling that the buffer has been cleared.

6.Release all three switches, make any necessary control panel settings, then set the printer back on-line.

It is essential to halt the printing program on the computer before you go off-line. Otherwise, when you go back on-line the computer will start sending data again and the printer will continue printing, with missing data where the buffer was cleared.
