Product: Deskjet 3630

I have been unable to access the admin setup for my 3630 printer. This is not the wireless password but the admin. I don't remember setting up a password but I could have done. I have already tried cold reset and wireless reset to no avail.

Some help would be appreciated.

 

Even stranger, after a hard reset the info sheet tells me thar the admin password is not set and yet still doen't allow me access to the admin settings.

@Misho_V I suggest you check my private message for steps on performing a full reset, the instructions are designed for your specific printer and if anyone with a different model would try the steps, it may render the printer unstable, hence a private message would be the safest way of sharing this information: Click here to know how the private message function works. 

 

Stand by for updates!

And have a good day.

 

(P.S: If anyone wants these instructions for their specific printers, please create a public post and tag me, I'll be happy to help).
