Resetting the printer can resolve various issues such as incorrect print quality, error messages, and problems with ink cartridges. This step-by-step guide will help you reset your R230 printer and get it back to its default settings.
Step 1: Turn off your printer
The first step in resetting your R230 printer is to turn it off. This is important as it allows you to reset the printer without any interference from ongoing print jobs. To turn off your printer, press the power button.
Step 2: Press and hold the 'Resume' button
After you have turned off the printer, locate the 'Resume' button on the printer. Press and hold the 'Resume' button while pressing the power button at the same time. This will turn on the printer and start the reset process.
Step 3: Release the 'Resume' button
Once the printer turns on, release the 'Resume' button. The power indicator light on the printer will start blinking. This indicates that the printer is in reset mode.
