Hi,

 

We lost the admin password to our printer and we need to factory reset it. Can anyone assist with those instructions?

 

Thank you.

Hi @rtm23 

 

Welcome to the HP support community.

I understand that you want steps to reset your printer. Don't worry, together we will try to sort this out.

 

We have to perform a Reset to unlock the features of the printer/Reset the password.

 

The reset instructions are specific to your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device.

 

I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.

 

In order to access your private messages, click the private message icon on the upper right corner of your HP Community profile.
 

Please perform these steps and Feel free to reply to your public post for any further assistance.

 

Thank you for being a Valuable Member of our HP Family.
