Hi @DavidASexton,

 

Welcome to the HP Forums! 

 

I noticed that you have forgotten the security code, and the password for for your HP Photosmart 7520 printer. I am happy to look into this issue for you! 

 

The default user name is admin, and the password is left empty/blank. If this does not work for you, I have sent you the instructions in a private message for a factory reset. If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, this post has instructions. The printer will need to be reconnected after the factory reset.

I have a HP Photosmart 7520 series printer. I have forgotten the administrator username and password. How do I reset it so that I can start again with "Admin" as the username?
