HP LaserJet Pro M16a
Service mode. Printer resets
Restore the factory-set defaults
Restoring the factory-set defaults returns all of the printer and network settings to the factory defaults. It will not reset the page count (the tray size and language settings are reset to factory defaults). To restore the printer to the factory-default settings, follow these steps.
CAUTION:
Restoring the factory-set defaults returns all of the settings to the factory defaults. All onboard network settings are also reset. Be sure to print a configuration page before restoring defaults. Make note of the IP address that is listed on the configuration page. You might need to restore the IP address after restoring factory-set defaults
NVRAM initialization
Performing an NVRAM initialization resets the following settings and information:
• All menu settings are reset to factory default values.
• All localization settings, including language and country/region, are reset to factory defaults.
CAUTION:
All onboard network settings are also reset. Be sure to print a configuration page before restoring defaults. Make note of the IP address that is listed on the configuration page. You might need to restore the IP address after an NVRAM initialization.
After performing an NVRAM initialization, reconfigure any computers that print to this printer. Uninstall and then reinstall the product software on the computers.
Super NVRAM initialization
A super NVRAM initialization restores the printer to the “generic printer mode” in which it arrived from the factory. This means that you will have to reset the language and country/region settings when the printer starts after the initialization. A super NVRAM initialization erases all data stored in the protected and unprotected NVRAM sections.
