Hi @NVAngelLady,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
The factory restore password for HP printers may vary depending on the model. However, in most cases, the default password for factory restore is either "admin" or "123456". You can try entering these passwords to perform a factory reset on your HP printer.
If these passwords do not work, you can check the user manual or HP support website for your specific model to find the correct factory restore password.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
