Hi @flaggie,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
To reset the password on your HP OfficeJet Pro 7720 so you can reconnect it to your network or access it from a tablet (e.g., for Fitbit data), here’s how to restore the printer to factory settings, which will also reset the admin password:
Reset HP OfficeJet Pro 7720 to Factory Defaults
⚠️ Note: This will erase all custom settings, including Wi-Fi and admin password.
📋 Steps:
- Power on the printer (if it’s not already on).
- On the touchscreen, go to the Home screen.
- Tap the Setup icon (gear ⚙️).
- Navigate to:
- Printer Maintenance or Tools
- Then select Restore or Restore Factory Defaults
- Choose Restore Factory Defaults.
- Confirm the reset when prompted.
The printer will restart and return to its original factory settings, including clearing any saved passwords.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
