@Success333_, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

If you have forgotten the wireless network security key, you will have to contact your Internet service provider.

For assistance, you may refer to - Find the wireless network password or PIN to connect an HP printer

 

If you are referring to the printer EWS password, restore network settings to default settings

Press the  Wireless button and the  Cancel button from the printer control panel at the same time, and then hold them for 5  seconds.

 

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
