Phaser 220 Drivers and Utilities
The Reset Printer (RESET.PS) Þle resets the printer to its power-on conditions
(not its factory default conditions), without turning the printerÕs power
switch off and on. The power-on conditions include any custom changes
made to the printer that are stored in the printerÕs NVRAM, or changes that
are persistent across printer power cycles. For example, if you used
downloadable utility Þles to change the printerÕs name, enable or disable the
printerÕs startup page, or conÞgure the printerÕs serial port, these are
power-on conditions that are not altered by resetting the printer. Resetting
the printer erases changes that are not persistent across printer power cycles,
such as the Tektronix error handler utility.
This Þle restarts the printer as soon as all the jobs in its queue are Þnished.
The printer remains unavailable while it initializes.
