Welcome to the HP Community --

If the requested password is actually a PIN number associated with HP Smart / HP App, for example, to open the "Advanced" section (Embedded Web Server - EWS), then the default PIN is provided somewhere on your printer.

"If prompted for a password, enter the PIN from the label on your printer. It might be near the
cartridge access area inside the printer or on the back, side, or bottom of the printer."

OR

Search for the word " EWS "

What if?

Standard Wireless Network - router controlled

If the requested password is the network password associated with your home or office Wireless network, the password to use that network is generally the same password you've used to connect your other devices to the network. 

A simple way to find the password - sign into your router:  Your router controls your network and includes the Wireless network password used to configure the network.
