4 Trouble shooting
4.1 How to initialize Ethernet settings to factory default settings.
If you need the Ethernet settings to factory settings, please do the following operation.
While the TCP/IP is operating, if the push switch is continued to be held down, the LED display pattern will
change according to the times shown below.
Phase Phase SW Pressing Time LED Pattern Special Mode
Color Pattern
1 1 second to less than 5 seconds Yellow Blinking Reserved (Undefined)
2 5 second to less than 9 seconds Red Blinking NIC setting initialize mode (*2)
3 9 second to less than 13 seconds Green Blinking Reserved (Undefined)
over 13 seconds (*1)
*1 When Phase 3 is exceeded, press the switch for 1 second to return to Phase 1.
*2 Execution procedures for the NIC setting initialize mode
A) After entering this mode, press the push switch once and release it. The LED display will be
“Extinguished” and the initializing of the NIC settings in the non-volatile memory will begin.
B) If the initialization is successful, the printer will automatically be reset.
Do not turn off the power or apply a reset until this reset has been applied.
Also, if the NIC setting initialization fails, the LED display will be “Red Lit” and all operations will
stop.
If so, turn the power off.
Note: When turning the power on, a different mode (automatic firmware update function using TFTP
client) will startup that is different to the above functions, for the operations when turning the
power on with the push switch pressed.
