HP LaserJet MFP M436n
Microsoft Windows 8.1 (64-bit)

I forgot the password to EWS for my HP LaserJet MFP M436n.  So far, I have tried to login to EWS after reseting  network configuration of the machine but was not able to login.

 

So is there any way to reset the machine to its factory settings and login using default username and password
