hp officejet 250

Hi there i have the same issue as this post.
https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Mobile-Printing-Cloud-Printing/OfficeJet-250-WiFi-Installation/m-p/881...

 

I have a problem with an HP officejet 250 Mobile All-in-one, in the initial setup at the "Printer Setup Environment", I chose the IT option and inadvertantly disabled wireless. There seems to be no way to get it back! A full factory reset or pulling the battery doesn't help.

 

In the thread the solution was:

Hello,

No options for WiFi or network settings were visible in the display.

Thanks to telephone support, the printer was reset via a semi-full reset and all configuration options (WiFi and network) are available again.

Thank you

Can you tell me how to do a semi-full reset?

I was unable to find a factory reset except for the "pro" version.  It probably will not work.
