Welcome to HP support community.

 

Open a web browser and type the printer IP address in the address field exactly as it appears on the Configuration Page, and then press Enter. 

Click the Security tab, and under General Security, set the local administrator password. Keep the username default as admin. Type the New Password and Verify Password  or try password as Password.

 

I hope that helps.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.

Unfortunately the EWS of my printer doesn't have a security tab.

 

HOME - SCAN - COPY - FAX - WEB SERVICES - NETWORK - TOOLS - SETTINGS

 

are the tabs available. 

 

Waiting for another solution.

I tried, during lest days, a list of old passwords. After 3 error, the system be locked and needed wait some time. 

 

So, finally now I have the full control of my printer.
