HP OfficeJet Pro 7740 Wide Format All-in-One Printer

I have a OfficeJet Pro 7740 AIO.

 

I forgot my Embedded Web Site (EWS) credentials.

 

 

How do I reset?

Welcome to the HP support community.

 

I understand that you want to reset the EWS password, I am glad to assist you.

 

Resetting the printer's network settings to its factory default settings erases the embedded Web server (EWS) administrator password.

 

1. From the printer control panel, touch or swipe down the tab at the top of the screen to open the Dashboard, and then touch ( Setup ). 

2. Touch Network Setup. 

3. Touch Restore Network Settings. A message appears stating that the network defaults will be restored. 

4. Touch Yes. 

5. Print the network configuration page and verify that the network settings have been reset.

 

Login to the EWS page with the default credentials and change the password.

Username: admin

Password: "leave it blank"

 

Let me know how it goes.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.
