Hi,
I need the steps to do a NVRAM reset on my printer (Laserjet MFP M29W). I set an administrator password that was randomly generated at 40 characters w/ special characters. The printer accepted the password when I set it but when I try to get into system after that and supply the password it says its wrong.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @supawiz6991,
I'd like to help!
I understand the printer is accepting the password you set.
We can perform a factory defaults on the printer to resolve the issue
- The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may corrupt the device.
- I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
