Hi @caspercby

 

Welcome to the HP Forums! 

 

I saw your post on how you are wondering how to do a factory reset on your HP Deskjet 4729 printer. I am happy to help! 

 

For this particular model, there is only the hard reset available, as described in this post, How to perform a Hard Reset, by @Rich1

 

What issue are you having with the printer? Perhaps there are other troubleshooting steps we can try. 

 

If this helps, please consider clicking on 'accept as solution.' And, please click on the thumbs up icon. Both icons are below this post.

 

Hope to hear from you soon! 🙂

Hi,

 

I am actually stuck on assigning wifi printer to the wifi router! It keeps on asking me to input username and password assigned to this device by administrator which I don't recall setting it..... Even is I leave it blank and press enter, it keeps on popping up asking for username and password...

Therefore I couldn't do any setting related change to the printer etc....

 

Tried the hard reset you provided link and still not working....Are there any other ways? 

 

Thanks,

 

Bobby
