Does resetting the printer to the factory defaults delete the HP eprint email address? I am trying to clean all personal things from my printer before I get rid of it.

Yes --

The Factory reset does remove all access to the ePrint address and removes the name of the address from the printer.

Factory reset does not remove the printer or its ePrint address from your HP Smart / HP Connected account.

 

You can / should sign into your HP Smart / HP Connected account and remove the printer from the account.

Factory resetting the printer usually removes the HP eprint settings, including the assigned eprint email address. If you're getting rid of the printer, it's also a good idea to remove it from your HP account and restore the network settings so none of your personal info stays on the device.
