M183fw EWS default password

[enea_co]

Hi,

I just installed the printer, tried to access to EWS (embedded web service) but I have no userID nor password. I read several threads concerning how to reset firmware and default password for EWS but none is working (e.g. admin, 12345678, blank ...).

What is the default EWS password for a M183fw built in April 2023?

Thanks !

Hi @enea_co,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

For the HP Color LaserJet MFP M183fw, the default password for the Embedded Web Server (EWS) is typically not set by default, so you might not have a password if you haven’t configured one.

If you’re having trouble accessing the EWS, you could try these steps.

Use Default Username and Password:

• Username: admin
• Password: (leave blank)

Check the Printer’s User Manual:

• The manual might have specific details on default credentials or accessing the EWS.

Reset to Factory Defaults:

• You can try performing a factory reset on the printer, which might reset any custom passwords back to default. Be aware this will also reset other settings.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
