I have forgotten my Administrator password and the only solution is a Full Factory Hardware Reset.

I understand a combination of button pushes on the control panel is required, and it seems different models have different combinations as posts have indicated. 

 

Wouldn't it be easier for everyone if HP included the steps in the product manual, what's the big secret?

 

What are the steps of the Full Factory Hardware Reset of HP 2652?

 

Thanks!
