EWS password reset (HP DeskJet 2630)

[12117]

Hello,

Today I bought new HP DeskJet 2630. In general, very good printer.

But now I have problem with EWS. I can't connect. Why? Because I changed EWS password, but...

I changed it, and I remember what I put into it, but I just can't connect with that password. So maybe some typo or I don't know what's going on, the fact is that I can't connect.

Now I reset my printer (holding power and cancel, also cancel and WI-FI button) and now I cannot connect WI-FI anymore, I see my printer with HP Smart (usb connected) but just cannot connect printer with WI-FI, failed at step 2. So anything what I can do is print with USB cable. But no WI-FI, no EWS, nothing more/special.

Already have installed latest firmware.

Please can someone help me? How to reset HP DeskJet 2630 EWS (Embedded Web Server) admin password?

Thank you 😃

Hi, problem solved. Thanks to ShlomiL

Steps:

Press and hold both the color copy and resume buttons, with your other hand power on the printer and keep holding the color copy and resume buttons till the printer starts, that should clear any password.
