Printer initialization is used to clear DRAM and restore printer settings to defaults.
The only one exception is ribbon sensitivity, which will note be restored to default.
Printer initialization is activated by the following procedures.
1. Turn off the power switch.

do during the 5 blinks).
The LED color will be changed as following:
Amber red (5 blinks) amber (5 blinks) green (5 blinks)
green/amber (5 blinks) red/amber (5 blinks) solid green
Printer configuration will be restore to defaults as below after initialization.
203DPI :127 mm/sec (5 ips)
