Password reset for HP Color LaserJet pro MPF M182nw

[pandc1]

Hello just picked up a laser jet printer not to long ago and while setting it up I entered an admin password and of course I have either forgotten it or accidentally enter the wrong one.  Is there a way to reset the admin password so I can access my printer again?

Thank you

Hi @pandc1,

I'd like to help!

We can perform a factory defaults on the printer to resolve the issue

• The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device.
• I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
