HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M182nw Factory Reset

[SapSecurity]

I have a M182nw Printer with a Security Password set on the console. The previous admin never shared the password. How do I do a factory reset on this type of printer? The system reset is also password protected so there is no way to choose that option. Thanks in advance.
