I have reset the entire printer with a full reset. That worked, because I could setup the admin credentials again in the printer portal in the browser, but after the setup was succeeded for the admin credentials setup, the credentials were denied. Is this a know issue, if so what is the common solution. Otherwise does someone know a better solution then not have a security setup.

Apparently the password setup doesn't indicate that the password can't be longer than 16 characters. It still continues without an error, but I tried it now with a password less than 16 characters which works.
