When you reset the machine, your faxes that are stored in the machine's memory may be deleted. Before you reset the machine, you can transfer your faxes to your computer or another fax machine so you will not lose any important messages.

The following reset functions are available:

  1. [Machine Reset]

    The following will remain:

    • The Address Book, Fax data, and Call History (For models with facsimile function)

    • Network settings
    • Secure Function Lock settings (For models with Secure Function Lock function)

  2. [Network]

    Reset the print server to its default factory settings (including all IP Address information except the administrator password).
