HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525f

I purchased a used MFP-525 - I wanted to use the feature of scanning to USB but unfortunately this feature is only available if I sign-in. When pressing the sign-in button, it asks for an administrative, user passcode. I do not have one since this was a used printer.  How do I create or reset one? What is the default PIN?

I would highly recommend after buying a used printer to run a Cold reset. You can find video instructions on Youtube
