Product: HP Color Laser MFP 178nw
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I want to access the advanced configuration in my brand new HP Color Laser MFP 178nw, webpage leading to Embedded Web Server, and I do not have the details of the credentials, I tried many "admin" combinations. 

 

Please advise what is the initial default login and password to access.

 

Thanks!
