Our internet network was reset. When I went to our 8620 to reset the network to factory settings so I could set
up the new network. It shows a "admin lockout, or by third party". Please advise how to reset so we can reconnect
to the new network. Thank you.

Let me take a moment to thank you for posting on the HP Support Forums.
I understand that you have an HP Officejet Pro 8620 e-All-in-One Printer and are unable to restore the network defaults. There's a message stating "admin lockout, or by third party". Not worry, I'll do my best to help you.
I suggest you to reset the printer to its original settings. This will completely restore the printer to its factory settings. I have sent you a private message with the steps to reset the printer.
I sincerely hope this fixes the issue. Keep me posted. Good luck! 🙂
