I have forgotten the password for logging in to my printers administration page.

How can I reset the password?

Hello Zoidberg2,

 

You can perform what is called "Cold Reset" to get rid of that unknown administration page password:

Keep in mind that is a hard reset, so anything user-defined will be rolled back to factory defaults like static Ip assignment, user profiles, language displayed in LCD screen etc.

Will that remove all other settings as well?
