Locking the Printer Control Panel

 

You can prevent users from changing the printer control panel

 

settings by establishing a password, thus enabling the printer control

 

panel lock. When locked, unauthorized users who try to change

 

settings in the printer control panel will receive an ACCESS DENIED

 

message.

 

If you are using Microsoft Windows, use either the HP Web JetAdmin

 

software or a PJL Command. The easier of the two methods is

 

through the HP Web JetAdmin software. For more information on

 

using the HP Web JetAdmin software to perform this function, see the

 

HP Web JetAdmin online help.

 

If you are using Mac OS, use the HP LaserJet utility. From the

 

HP LaserJet utility, on the Security tab select Lock Control Panel.

 

 

Note

If you have forgotten the password for the printer control panel, print

 

a configuration page, an EIO page, and a menu map page, then reset

 

the printer with a cold reset. To perform a cold reset, turn the printer

 

off then hold down the green GO button and turn the printer on. When

 

the front panel displays COLD RESET, release the green GO button. All

 

printer settings (including internal print server card settings) will

 

return to the factory defaults, all passwords will be cleared, and the

 

printer control panel will be unlocked. Use the pages listed above to

 

restore the printer settings. For more information on printing these

 

pages, see “Printing Internal Pages” later in this chapter.
