## Resetting printer to factory defaults

1. Turn on the printer and wait until both the **"Ready"** indicator and the **"Power"** indicator stay solid green.
2. Press the **"FEED"** button for 4 seconds, and the **"Ready"** and **"Power"** indicators will go off in order.
3. Once the **"Power"** indicator becomes lit again, release the **"FEED"** button.
4. The **"Ready"** indicator will also become lit. At this moment, the printer has resumed its factory default settings.

**Note**: The printer will delete any print tasks that were received but not yet printed.
