Factory Reset of Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw

[LRobertson42]

I replaced a router and renamed the Wireless Network Name that my printer was connected to.

Now, I'm Unable to access Network Setup of System Setup to update the Network or access a new one.

Touchpad is asking for a password that was never given.

Network summary reports give invalid IP addresses and Wi-Fi Direct Password: 192.168.223.1

I need to perform a factory reset of my Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw printer.

Thank you for your time

Re: Factory Reset of Color LaserJet Pro MFP M283fdw///// your response to the original requestor did not help me because you sent them an email.  I clicked the link and no help.

To add a printer that was previously removed from HP Smart or your account, complete a factory reset and set up the printer again. Complete a factory reset from the printer front panel, the "Advanced Settings" menu in HP Smart, or the printer embedded web server.

There are no printers added to your account yet.

These are my instructions and I don't know how to do this.
