HP Recommended

I have a 1202w that at some point I added a EWS password. Im trying to setup this printer on a new network and have followed all the available options and setup but no matter what the setup stops and asks for the custom password. At one point i had the reset procedure but for some reason all the responses in the HP support forums default to sending the users with the same issues a private message instead of posting the actual reset procedure.  So im looking for the factory reset procedure, powering down and holding resume while powering up did not work and the same for holding cancel and the network button. Ive scoured what i can and found some info for EWS reset but it does not have the this printer model listed. 

 

Thank you in advance
