Lost Password -- Factory reset of Laser Jet Pro MFP M130fw

[warden]

I forgot the password of my printer.

At this time, I cannot control the setup menu.

Therefore, I would like to make the factory reset of the printer.

The product name is LaserJet Pro MFP M130fw.

Would you help me to solve this problem?

** Also, I could've solved this problem already, however, in all the threads with this issue, the "Solution" was sent as a Private Message to the asker... which makes ZERO sense since this is a support forum with the purpose of sharing technical information and resolving issues as a community. Stupid. **

Hi @warden,

I'd like to help!

The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device, this is the reason a private message is sent.

• I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
• In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Support Community profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/notes/privatenotespage

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
