Re: Resetting LaserJet to power on state

The use of the "Reset" sequence or operator panel commands will NOT clear
soft fonts and macros that have been declared as "permanent" when they were
downloaded into the LJ.

Instead of physically doing a poweroff/poweron sequence, send the following
12-byte stream to your LaserJet:

	ESC E		(the traditional Reset)
	ESC *c0F	(delete all soft fonts {that's a zero eff})
	ESC &f6X	(delete all macros)

The ESC is really the escape character (hex 1B).

Case is significant; use upper and lower case characters exactly as shown.
