2.2.1.3 Deadlock: Front Panel locked + EWS password forgotten
Under certain circumstances, a printer might become inaccessible if the control panel has been locked and the
administrator has lost the password needed to unlock it. This could happen if the front panel is locked through the
printer’s Embedded Web Server and the Administrative password for the EWS is lost. In this situation, it would not be
possible to unlock the front panel from the Embedded Web Server and it would not be possible to reset the
Embedded
Web Server from the front panel.
Note: If the printer’s front panel becomes locked and you are unable to unlock it, then you should contact HP support
as soon as possible.
SCL certificates
• Jetdirect identity certificate
You can request, install, and manage digital certificates on the HP Jetdirect print server. Certificates are used
to
identify the Jetdirect print server both as a valid web server for network clients, and as a valid client
requesting access
on a secure network. By default, the Jetdirect print server contains a self-signed, pre-
installed certificate.
