Reset LaserJet Printer

A laserjet printer is one of the common types of system printer. Top quality printing of graphics and images are obtained from such printer. The scanning of laser beam which is across the photoreceptor of the printer would produce the images. A laser beam would be there and it would project the image present on the paper into an electrically charged drum. That drum is being coated with selenium or other organic conductors. The charges present in the areas exposed to light would be removed. The dry ink particles that are present are picked up by charged areas on drum. Then, this drum would print image in the paper by the direct contact and heat. The resetting of the laserjet printer would solve some issues with the printer since it brings that to the default settings.
