There is no way to restart the printer using EWS. In fact, the printer can only be powered off and powered on using the Power button on the printer itself.

 

There is an option to set the Auto Off on the Printer from EWS > Settings Tab, where the printer will power off after a certain time, however no option to Restart the printer or even Power On.

 

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
