Defaults Return your printer settings to the factory default values. Sometimes resetting the printer
to the original settings solves formatting problems. All menu items are reset to the
factory default values except:
• Display Language.
• All settings in the Parallel menu, Network menu, LocalTalk menu, and USB menu.
All downloaded resources (fonts, macros, and symbol sets) in printer memory (RAM) are
deleted.

Photoconductor
Counter Return the photoconductor counter to zero.
The replace photoconductor message should be cleared only when the photoconductor
kit has been replaced.

characters are missing. Hex Trace helps you determine if there is a
problem with the language interpreter or the cable by telling you what
information your printer is receiving. To exit Hex Trace, turn off the printer. • Off*

Pages Help isolate print quality problems, such as streaking. When you select this setting, three
