HP LaserJet Pro MFP M130fw
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi...this is the response I got from an HP employee on how to reset my HP laserjet MFP M130fw printer.  I don't have the admin password.  When I do this, the Service menu only takes me to a "password screen".  HELP!!

 

Follow the below steps to Restore the factory-set defaults.

 

1. On the printer control panel, open the Setup menu.

2. Open the Service menu.

3. Select Restore Defaults.

 

The printer automatically restarts.
