I have reset my "HP Officejet 5740 e-All-in-One Printer series" printer in hope to be able to log into the EWS service to make some changes.
I'm getting a popup that is asking for the username/password.
What is the defualt username/password?

This is a great location to get assistance! I read your post and see that you are getting pop up asking for username and password while accessing EWS page. I would like to help you resolve this issue.
Please follow the bellow steps to fix this issue.
- Press the wireless button on control panel.
- Select settings.
- Scroll down to restore network defaults and then press OK.
- You should be able to make changes on EWS page now.
Let me if that works.
Cheers.

Still getting the same message. I tried it in Chrome and Internet Explorer.
I'm able to get to the ' HP Officejet 5740 e-All-in-One Printer series' page, but if I try to make any changes (i.e. Tools/Utilities/Print Quality Toolbox or others) I get the login prompt.
Is there an actual username/password that would go in there?

Thanks for the reply.
I appreciate your time and effort.
Try the below username and password.
- Username: admin
- Password: admin
Let me know if that works.
Cheers.
