Product: HP ENVY Pro 6458 All-in-One Printer

A few day ago I had to reset up my wifi with my Linksys & was required to change my password which I did. I do not think I used my printer since that until now, trying to print today. I believe I have to update the wifi password to allow the printer to work, but I can not figure out how to change the password for the printer wifi. I've been looking all over. Please help since I can't get in touch with a live person right now. Thank you in advance! Julie

Hi @julieagg,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

Are you trying to reset the printer EWS page password? If yes follow the steps below. 

 

Resetting the printer's network settings 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:-

On the back of the printer, press and hold the Wireless button for at least three second

 

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.
