My printer disconnected from WiFi and now when I go back to connect my printer through the HP Smart app, it asks for my admin password for the integrated web services in order to establish a WiFi connection, but I cannot remember my password.

 

After looking through all the forums, I saw suggestions to use "admin" as the username and either a BLANK password, or 12345678, and to press and hold cancel and the wifi button to reset it all, but none of these solutions have worked.

How do I recover my forgotten admin password? HELP!Screen Shot 2020-02-16 at 2.06.04 PM.jpg
