Hi @Tomas1234567,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding Recovering Username for HP Tango X After Setting a Password!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
Try these steps:
Default Username:
- Try using default usernames such as "admin" or leave the username field blank. Many devices do not require a specific username when a password is the only configured credential.
Check Related Documentation:
- Review any documentation or notes you might have made during the initial setup. Sometimes, the username might have been noted down somewhere.
HP Smart App:
- If you used the HP Smart app to set up your printer, check if there are any settings or account details saved in the app that might give you a clue about the username.
Printer's Control Panel:
- If accessible, you can explore the printer settings via the control panel to check any saved credentials.
Reset the Printer:
- If you're unable to retrieve the username through the above steps, you might need to perform a factory reset on the printer. Note that this will remove any custom settings, including the password:
- Turn off the printer.
- Unplug it from the power source.
- Hold the power button for 15 seconds.
- Plug the printer back in and turn it on.
I hope this helps.
