Deskjet 2700
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a deskjet 2710 printer scanner, I am trying to setup the ews on the printer and it is asking for an admin password. I cannot remember what I set it to. 

 

I need to reset this so I can get into the control panel.

 

Can anyone help with this.

 

Many thanks

Welcome to the HP support community.

 

Restore network settings to default settings

Press and hold the Wireless button and the Cancel button from the printer control panel together for three seconds.

 

Connect the printer again to the WiFi network.

Login to the EWS page with the default credentials and change the password.

Username: admin

Password: "leave it blank"

 

I hope that helps.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.
