Which settings stay after a factory reset?

I have currently the issue that my 2 right tool headers do not detect any filaments. I tried to calibrate them, but the icon on the bottom on the screen did not change when the filament was pushed through the sensors. I read somewhere about this, and the solution seems to 'Do a factory reset'.

I am a bit reluctant, because if I have to do _all_ calibrations again it will take some time.

Does a Factory Reset mean I have to do all tests again?

RE:

Factory Reset can be done via LCD Menu -> Settings -> System -> Factory Reset. 

Starting firmware 4.6.1 there are two options:

Reset Settings & Calibrations - this option deletes all changes done by the user and reverts the system to its original state. For most of the cases, this is a sufficient method. Technically speaking only the EEPROM with user stored data is deleted. Once, the reset is done, the printer will boot to language selection, followed by the calibration wizard.

Hard reset (USB with FW needed) - due to the complex partition layout, the firmware stores its settings not only in the EEPROM but also on the XFLASH. In some edge cases, it might be necessary to delete both of these. Once this reset is done, the user must insert a USB drive with firmware as some parts of the XFLASH will be created again from scratch.

I'm doubting that is the answer you wanted to see.
