Only the configuration settings listed are restored to factory defaults. Other configuration settings are
not affected.

Authorization

Use the Authorization page to control access to the device and to the device configuration and
management features. You can also configure certificates for client and server authentication.

Admin. Account

Use this page to set an administrator password for controlled access to HP Jetdirect configuration and
status information. The administrator password is shared by HP Jetdirect configuration tools, such as
the embedded Web server, Telnet, and HP Web Jetadmin. In selected printers, the password is shared
with the printer (see
If a password is set, and you attempt to access HP Jetdirect print server settings, you are prompted for
a user name and this password before you are allowed access.
NOTE:
You can clear the administrator password by applying blank entries, or by a cold reset of the
print server to factory-default settings.
You can synchronize HP Web Jetadmin and the SNMP v1/v2c Set Community Name by using the check
box. The administrator password is also used as the SNMP Set Community Name for SNMP v1/v2c
management applications.
NOTE:
If you subsequently change the SNMP Set Community Name through the SNMP tab on the
Network Settings page or by using HP Web Jetadmin, the two settings are no longer synchronized.
Printer Password Synchronization
(EIO and embedded print servers only.) Most printers provide password-protected access to printer
configuration and status settings. The password is set through security Web pages provided by the
printer. For these, the administrator password for the printer and the HP Jetdirect print server are
synchronized so that the same password is used to access both printer and networking configuration
pages. For printers that support password synchronization, the same password is used regardless of
the embedded Web server page (printer security pages, or the HP Jetdirect Admin. Account page) in
which the password was set.
If password synchronization is lost on these printers, recovery might require one of the following
procedures:
Restore both the printer and the HP Jetdirect print server to factory-default states (for example,
through a cold-reset), and then reconfigure your settings.
Manually set the same administrator password using both the printer security page and the
HP Jetdirect Admin. Account page.

Certificates

Use this tab to install, configure, and manage services for X.509v3 digital certificates. A digital certificate
is an electronic message containing, among other things, a key (a short string used for encryption and
decryption) and a digital signature. Certificates are typically issued and signed by a trusted third party
(commonly called a certificate authority, or CA), which exists internal or external to the organization.
Certificates can also be self-signed.
