HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP 4301fdn Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

When setting up my HP ColorJet Pro MFP 4301fdn printer, I did not enter a password for the administrator.  I'm wondering how to either reset my printer and start over or is there a way to update the password.  Thank you!

The default password is printed on a label on the inside of the front door. Should be on the right. If that does not work there is a slight chance you have a unit that needs to be reset to factory to clear the corrupted default password. You reset from the control panel. https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/ish_7578376-7578425-16
