Hi @MaizTacos,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query.

I understand that you would like to set up a password on your HP printer, you can usually do this through the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS). 

Connect to the Printer's Network:

• Make sure your printer and your computer are connected to the same network.

Access the Embedded Web Server (EWS):

• Find the printer's IP address by printing a Network Configuration Page from the printer's settings.
• Enter the IP address into your web browser to open the EWS.

Log into the EWS:

• Depending on if a password is already set, you might be prompted to enter it.
• If prompted for a username, try "admin".

Set Up a Password:

• Go to the Security or Settings tab within the EWS.
• Look for an option like Administrator Settings or Password Settings.
• You can create and confirm a new password here.

Save Your Changes:

• After setting the password, ensure you click on any button that looks like "Apply" or "Save" to store your settings.

Close the EWS Page:

• Once everything is saved, you can close your web browser.

Take care and have an amazing day!
