EWS constantly requires pin

[Teligence2]

The deskjet 2734e Embedded Web Server requires a pin to access secure settings every time I try to access the EWS. I've set an admin password so how do I get past the very annoying pin entry requirement?

(BTW, I absolutely DESPISE where HP has "automated" their software/driver support. FAR too inconsistent and troublesome! Give me the old, reliable printer-specific installation packages!)

Short answer:

You cannot bypass the security in EWS.

Add the password to your password manager -- doing so might let you at least go through the security with fewer steps.
