Hi, all!

 

I just fresh installed a brand new HP LaserJet 1536dnf MFP,

in a networked environment:

- unpacked, mounted all, plugged in & started;

- printed demo & menu structure;

- on the miniLCD palel of the printer "Security" was "off" and I left it so;

- setup static IPv4 settings (no DHCP server on the network);

- accessed via "http://ip.address.of.printer/" via Internet Explorer;

- formed a password in Notepad (mostly letters), to protect the settings;

- entered "http://ip.address.of.printer/ --> System --> ???"

- copied from Notepad and pasted in the two fields the password;

- the interface accepted and promted me for 'username" and "password"

- didn't noticed any username, so I left it blank and pasted the password;

- the web interface do not allow me anymore to login;

- on the microLCD panel, in the Settings section, ask for a password;

- installed the drivers (Win7x64) on the printer works well via network;

- no access to microLCD panel settings;

- no access to the web interface settings.

 

The password I used is quite "HP LaserJet 1536dnf MFP" (without quotes

but with uppercase /lowercase and spaces as shown), exactly as writen

on the printer.

 

How can I re-gain access to the settings?

If necessary I shall "cold reset" it but... how?

 

Can you help me, please?

 

Thank you!
