I tried to change ID and password in EWS, but since this time I can no longer login as an admin to change some printer settings.
I can access the EWS just as a standard user, without any rights for changes
Could you please send me a message how to reset my Color Laser 150nw...
My printer has just 'Wireless', 'Resume', 'Cancel' and 'Power' button

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that you want to reset the EWS password, I am glad to assist you.
Meanwhile:-
Resetting the printer to its factory default settings erases the embedded Web server (EWS) administrator password.
Follow these steps to reset the printer to the factory default settings:-
Press and hold the (Wireless) button on the control panel for about 20 seconds. When the (Attention) LED and the (Power) LED to start blinking together, release the (Wireless) button.
Login to the EWS page with the default credentials and change the password.
Username: admin
Password: "leave it blank"
Let me know how it goes.
To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.
Cheers.
