Before to do the procedure let me introduce with printer features:-
There is 4 kind of printer –
1) Printers without led’s and buttons – Such printer do not have Led’s and buttons on it except start button ( in this We cann’t change the Settings means No factory settings)
2) Printer having led’s – such printer having led’s and buttons on it
3) Printer having Flex Control panel – Such printer having Control panel with all easy buttons on it with led’s.
4) Printer those having Classic Control Panel - Such printer having minimum buttons and a control panel on it.
Some time for several reasons we have to restore default our Printer like mobile phone –
Some Reasons Why we required Restore Default of Printers:-
1) When printer setting get changed.

3) When printer IP Address get changed
4) When Printer do not stop printing documents
