Resetting to Factory Defaults ("Cold Reset") Once you configure the HP print server, the configuration settings are retained in memory unless you manually reset them to factory defaults. If you lose communications with the HP Jetdirect print server, or it fails to operate properly, you may need to reset the print server to its factory-default configuration. This is called a "cold reset". Procedure To reset the print server configuration to factory defaults, follow these steps: 1. Unplug the power module from the back of the print server. 2. While pressing the test button on the back of the print server, plug the power module back into the print server. Any user-configured settings will be erased. Note When this step is done, the print server responds exactly like it was fresh from the factory. This 802.11b print server will be in ad hoc mode after this procedure; it will scan for a network with an SSID of hpsetup to join. Until it finds a network, it will continue scanning with an IP address 0.0.0.0. Once a network is established by completing step 4 below (for example by having a laptop establish a network with a name of hpsetup), it will go to the default IP address 192.0.0.192. 3. Print a Jetdirect configuration page to confirm that factory-default values you expect have been assigned. See page 5-4. 4. You must repeat the setup procedures in chapters 3 and 4.

Troubleshooting Problems 5-13
Resetting to Factory Defaults (“Cold Reset”)
Once you configure the HP print server, the configuration settings are retained in memory
unless you manually reset them to factory defaults. If you lose communications with the
HP Jetdirect print server, or it fails to operate properly, you may need to reset the print
server to its factory-default configuration. This is called a “cold reset”.
Procedure
To reset the print server configuration to factory defaults, follow these steps:
1.
Unplug the power module from the back of the print server.
2.
While pressing the test button
on the back of the print server, plug the power module
back into the print server. Any user-configured settings will be erased.
Note
When this step is done, the print server responds exactly like it was fresh from
the factory. This 802.11b print server will be in
ad hoc
mode after this procedure;
it will scan for a network with an SSID of
hpsetup
to join. Until it finds a
network, it will continue scanning with an IP address 0.0.0.0. Once a network
is established by completing step 4 below (for example by having a laptop
establish a network with a name of
hpsetup
), it will go to the default
IP address 192.0.0.192.
3.
Print a Jetdirect configuration page to confirm that factory-default values you expect
have been assigned. See page 5-4.
4.
You must repeat the setup procedures in chapters 3 and 4.
