I will try to help you with the factory reset. 

 

Do you have a touch screen on the printer or do you have the number pad and letters?

My printer does not have a touch screen... and it does not have a number pad with letters either.  It has the power button at the top then down towards the middle after (quality, actual size, resize to fit...buttons), it has the Cancel button ....below Cancel button is three buttons with little colors on them (blue, gray, and greenish)... these are for copy, scan...and print.

Hi,

I have attached a picture in the message it will help you in resetting the printer. But before you proceed I would like to tell you what this reset will actually do to the printer-

 

Partial Reset – Used mainly by customers with direction by call agents.

 

> All user menu settings to default.

 

> All telephony parameter values to default.

 

> Initiate select country and language UI.

 

> Clear fax memory.

 

At your help an employee of HP.
