HP Laser Jet PRO MFP M28w
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My printer is a LaserJet MFP M28w, and I have lost access to the admin web portal due to a forgotten password.  I have a new Wireless network and a new PC since the printer was last used, and I cannot connect it to my WiFi Network. I want to reset the network settings but cannot because I lack the password, or as it says, "A custom password has been set for your printer. Enter a password to access the printer web interface". Is there a way to reset the printer to its default settings?
