Good afternoon,

 

I forgot my Admin credentials, how can I factory reset it? I believe this is the only way to setup a new admin password..

 

Thanks

No idea how a password is set on this printer.  I put it in place and powered it on.   It's at the setup screen, requesting the Language selection, but I can't get past it.

 

When I select the sign in button, I can pick either User or Admin, but no password I've tried will work.

 

Is there a way to factory default this thing at power on?

 

Thanks!
