Clearing the Buffer and Reinitializing the Printer

Pressing and holding down for five or more seconds clears the
print buffer and tells the printer to initialize itself. You might use
this function if you cancel a print job in the middle and want to clear

the printer and start over. In this case, permanently downloaded
fonts are removed by the initialization process. You must download

the fonts again.
