How do I troubleshoot a YUMBI Printer stuck in a loop?

When a printer repeatedly prints the same order and does not complete it but instead switches off and on again going through the same cycle, this state is considered a loop. This doesn't mean that the printer is broken, what it means is that it needs to have its memory cleared, this is what we refer to as a printer stuck in a loop. 

How do we clear the printer's memory and get the printer unstuck from its loop?
