Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

  • Could you share the screen where it's asking for the password? 

Keep me posted for further assistance.

Hi, @ECHO_LAKE,

 

Yes, I'm entering the password on the Embedded Web Server page. I do not have a password. Can you please help me with which password I should enter below the screen to register my printer?  Let me know if you are not able to understand my query. I hope the below image will give you an idea.WhatsApp Image 2021-07-21 at 9.07.00 AM.jpeg

Thank you for posting back. 

 

Let's try these steps:

  1. Open a web browser and type the printer IP address in the address field exactly as it appears on the Configuration Page,  and then press Enter.
  2. Click the Security tab, and under General Security, set the local administrator password.
    1. Keep the username default as admin.
    2. Type the New Password and Verify Password.
    3. Navigate to the bottom of the page and click Apply.

Use these credentials the next time you Log In to the EWS.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
