HP Officejet Pro 276dw
Linux

Through the web browser, I (probably) indicated that the administrative tasks have been banned from the control panel . Subsequently sign in via the control panel is no longer possible.

 

But today I accidentally disable the network functionality of my printer (also via web browser).

Consequence: through the browser I have no longer access to administrative tasks, because 'https://192.168.x.xxx' is unreachable! And as already mentioned, restore network connection via the control panel is also no longer possible. Even restore factory settings is not possible.

This erroneous manipulation happened while I was testing the possibilities via the webbrowser.

 

Moreover, I use Linux OS, and work with the hplip driver, and I think that the DVD does not have a recovery program for Linux?

 

But I would be very grateful to HP when someone can help me.

Is there a way to reset the printer via the hardware?

Or is there another possibility to restore the network connection on my printer?
