Hi @Nkosi97,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you want to know how to set the passwords for your HP DeskJet 2700 All-in-One printer series.

 

May I know the Operating system?

 

1. Wi-Fi Direct Password:

  • This password allows you to directly connect your device (laptop, phone, etc.) to the printer without using a router.
  • Finding the password:
    • Print a Network Configuration Page: Press and hold the Wireless button and the Information button simultaneously until the light blinks. This prints a page with various information, including the Wi-Fi Direct password under "Wi-Fi Direct Name."
    • Or, use the HP Smart app: Open the app, connect to your printer, and go to "Network & Wireless." You can find the password under "Wi-Fi Direct."

2. Local Web Server Password:

  • This password allows you to access the printer's web server through your computer's web browser for advanced configuration.
  • Default password: Most HP printers, including the 2700 series, don't have a default local web server password. You can set one if needed, but it's not required for basic functionality.

3. Wireless Network Password:

  • This is the password for your home or office Wi-Fi network that you need to connect the printer to.
  • You won't find this password on the printer itself. You need to know the password for your Wi-Fi router and enter it during the printer setup process.

4. Administrator Password:

  • This password is only needed for certain advanced settings and troubleshooting.
  • Default password: HP printers don't have a default administrator password. It's recommended to set one for security reasons, but be sure to remember it as there's no way to recover it if lost.
