My date & time are off on my Officejet 8600 Plus (connected to a home network with ePrint enabled) and when I attempt to change the date & time I receive a message that says "The feature has been locked by my system administrator or the person who set up the printer". Never set security up on tyhis so not sure how to clear this out and make changes? Help!

I'm having the exact same problem and I'm getting flustered! I've accessed the printer via internet and it's not showing that it is locked (the password area should be blank and is blank). I've tried to turn the computer off and leave it off for awhile, but this doesn't seem to work either. Anyone have this problem and learned the fix?
