How To Set Hp 9250c To Factory Defaults

A cold reset resets the values of permanent storage variables back to the factory default. Often a cold reset is necessary for clearing the HP MFP Digital Sending Server IP address.

The following items are cleared during a cold reset:

• Embedded Jetdirect IP address
• SMTP IP address
• LDAP IP address
• Embedded Web server password
• All control-panel configurable items

The following items are NOT cleared during a cold reset:

• Local address book e-mail addresses
• Real-time clock (date and time)
• Page counts and maintenance counts
• Product serial number and formatter number
• Service ID
• Event log

To perform a cold reset, complete the following steps:

1. Power Off the Digital Sender.

2. Power On the Digital Sender.

3. While the product is performing its memory count, hold down the 6 key. When the three status LEDs are illuminated, release the 6 key.

4. Press the 3 key four times until the display shows COLD RESET.

5. Press the 6 key once to initiate the cold reset. The product will continue its boot sequence.

Disk initialization

The disk-initialization routine reformats each of the read-write file systems on the product hard disk drive. The procedure does not destroy the contents of the permanent storage variables (critical values such as serial numbers, page counts, IP addresses, and maintenance counts).

The following items are deleted during a disk initialization:

• Local address books
• Downloaded Java applet files

Complete the following steps to perform a disk initialization:

1. Power Off the Digital Sender.

2. Power On the Digital Sender.

3. While the product is performing its memory count, hold down the right-hand side of the control-panel Startkey. When the three status LEDs are illuminated, release the key.

4. Press the 5 key one time until the display shows INITIALIZE DISK.

5. Press the 6 key one time to initiate the disk initialization. The Digital Sender reboots.
