Chapter 3 — Troubleshooting and Maintaining the PB21 and PB31
Resetting the Printer
Cleaning the Printer
60
You rarely need to reset the printer, unless you are upgrading the
firmware. If your printer occasionally locks up, you will want to reset
it. A reset reinitializes the 802.11 radio and clears the working
memory.
Note: The Setup menu is not affected by a reset. Your printer retains
all of your configuration settings after the printer powers back up.
To reset the printer
1 Disconnect the printer from power if externally powered.
2 Remove the battery from the printer for at least one second.
3 Insert the battery back into the printer.
4 Reconnect external power if your printer is externally powered.
