Via a web browser
Because web based management requires the TCP/IP protocol for communication, any reset option you see when managing the machine with a web browser, will not reset the IP address details that are set.

To reset the print server (excluding TCP/IP parameters) follow these steps:

1. Connect to the printer using a web browser.
2. Click Network Configuration.
3. Enter the print server password (the print server password is detailed in the user guide for the print server) if it's applicable.
4. Click the Set Default link or Reset Print Server.
