Clearing the printer can help resolve issues such as paper jams, error codes, and other printing problems. In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of resetting your Bizhub 12p printer to its factory settings.
Step 1: Turn off the printer
The first step is to turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source. This ensures that any stored data is erased and that the printer is completely shut down.
Step 2: Press the reset button
Locate the reset button on the back of the printer and press and hold it for at least five seconds. Release the button once the LED light starts flashing.
Step 3: Press the power button
After releasing the reset button, press the power button on the front of the printer while keeping the reset button pressed. Keep holding both buttons for another five seconds.
Step 4: Release both buttons
Release both buttons simultaneously, and the printer will start initializing. The initialization process may take a few seconds to complete.
Step 5: Select the language
After the initialization process is complete, the printer will ask you to select the language, date, and time. Using the arrow keys on the printer, select the appropriate language and press the 'enter' button.
Step 6: Select the factory default setting
Once you have selected the language, the printer will ask you to confirm your choice. Press the 'enter' button to continue. The printer will then ask you to select the desired setting options. Select the 'factory default setting' option and press 'enter.'
Step 7: Confirm the reset
The printer will display a confirmation message asking if you want to reset the printer to its factory settings. Press the 'enter' button to confirm the reset.
Step 8: Restart the printer
The printer will restart automatically after the reset process is complete. After the printer has restarted, it will be reset to its original factory settings and ready to use.
