Product: HP LaserJet MFP M140w
Operating System: Other
Hi,
I've scoured the internet for a solution for this problem but i am yet to find one.
The titular printer (HP LaserJet MFP M140w) EWS interface is unavailable to me.
The password i have saved in the password manager had been lost, and i am no longer able to access the Embedded Web Server.
I've already attempted to hold WiFi and Cancel buttons for 3 seconds, and while this does restore the default settings on the printer, it does not resolve the issue with EWS login.
After the reset i have attempted to use:
- no password
- my HP smart account password
- the password on a sticker inside of a printer
Kindly assist.
