Product: scx 3405W
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

How to reset Samsung SCX-3405W printer to factory defaults without knowing the password or how to reset lost SyncThru password?

 

I tried default login/password (but as far as I remember I changed default user/pass few years ago), I also tried to use SyncThru webpage but it asks for current password in order to set new one (which is quite obvious) and finally I tried to follow this guide: https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c05591645 so I plugged in the printer via USB and used "Easy Printer Manager" but in "Advanced Settings" I got only some "Warnings" section without any possibility to change printer's settings.

 

Please help as I need to change Wi-Fi SSID name stored in printer's settings and I do not have any other ideas how to move it forward.
