Hi @CooperCGN,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To perform a factory reset on the HP Color Laser 150nw, please follow the steps below.
- Turn off the printer and disconnect any cables connected to it.
- Press and hold the "Cancel" and "Wireless" buttons on the printer.
- While holding down the buttons, turn the printer on.
- Continue holding the buttons until all of the LEDs on the printer light up.
- Release the buttons.
- The printer will now reset to its factory settings.
Note that performing a factory reset will erase all custom settings and configurations, and restore the printer to its original state when it was first unboxed. After the reset is complete, you will need to reconfigure the printer and set it up again using the setup guide.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
