HOW TO REST EWS PASSWORD 4729

Hi @Joel7031,

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding your printer!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

Try these steps:

Factory Reset the Printer:

• The most straightforward way to reset an EWS password is to perform a factory reset on the printer. This will restore all settings, including the EWS password, to their defaults.

Steps to Factory Reset:

• Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
• Wait for about 60 seconds.
• Plug the printer back in and power it on.
• Depending on the printer model, you may need to navigate through the settings on the printer’s control panel to find and perform a factory reset. Look under "Settings" or "Tools" and search for options such as "Restore Defaults" or "Factory Reset."

Accessing EWS:

• After the reset, you can access the Embedded Web Server by entering the printer’s IP address in a web browser.
• The default username and password should have been reset, allowing you to create a new password from the EWS interface.
• Be Cautious: Be aware that a factory reset will erase all current settings on the printer, not just the EWS password.

I hope this helps.
