Hi,

Thank you for visiting HP Support Forum,
The only option is to restore to factory defaults. (This will clear all custom setting and have to reconfigure)

 

I have sent you a private message with the steps to perform a reset on the printer. Check next to your profile Name, you should see a little blue envelope, please click on it. Click here for more details on how to access the private messages on HP Support Community

For some reason my HP 2542 has started asking for a WPA2 password. I've tried everything I can think of and looked at the forum, where someone suggested printing the configuration page (which I did and it didn't have the password on it). On the printer configuration page it shows an error code: B82D2FBE so I don't know if that is the problem. I have no idea why it has suddenly stopped printing on wireless. Can anybody help?
