I do not have the admin password for my printer and am unable to access certain features on the printer screen. Is there a default password or can it be reset? I bout the printer from Amazon and I believe it was refurbished.

Hello @PWhiteCEO , how are you ?
Please, try the procedures below:
- Open the cartridge access door.
- Look for a sticker with the printer's default PIN on it.
- Close the cartridge access door.
- On the printer's control panel, press the "Login Method" button.
- Select "Device Administrator".
- Choose to enter the password and type in the PIN you found on the sticker.
- You will need to perform a factory reset to return to the default settings. You can usually find this option under Setup > Printer Maintenance > Restore Factory Defaults on the printer's control panel.
- If the password was changed by someone else, you must contact that person to get the new password
Or, post below:
