How do I reset the administrator settings on my HP OfficeJet 6700?  I am attempting to use wireless setup wizard to configure my printer to a new network and it says blocked by administrator.  When I attempt to reset to default settings, there is a message on my printer that also says blocked by administrator.  Is there a way to hard reset the printer?

@Dewatson, Welcome to HP Support Community!

The only option left is to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer. 

The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device. 

I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer. 

In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Forums profile, next to your profile Name or simply click on this link.

Hope this helps!
