Try these steps: 

Access Printer via HP Smart App

If your printer is connected to a Wi-Fi network, you can try accessing it through the HP Smart App:

  1. Open HP Smart on your computer or phone.
  2. Select your printer and go to Printer Settings > Security.
  3. Check if you can reset or remove the password.

Refer to the steps on this link to restore factory defaults.
