Dell 3100CN Password issue
Got a Dell 3100CN
Somebody set a password on it and I can't figure it out.
NOt sure who did it, but I have tried 0000, 1010, 0101, 1919, 9191, 0909, 9090 and othe combinations of numbers on front panel. Still no luck.
Have also tried to use the user administrator and passwords of password, admin, 12345, 1234,... all to no avail.
Is there any backdoor password to get into printer and reset password?
Thanks in advance.

Hey Coyboss... Try these steps :
1. When Ready to Print appears on the operator panel LCD, press Menu.
The printer enters the menu mode. You should see the word Menu on the top line of the LCD.
2. Press the Down button until you see Configure on the second line of the LCD.
3. Press Select. Basic Settings should appear on the second line of the LCD.
4. Press the Down button until you see Network on the second line of the LCD.
5. Press Select. Basic Settings should appear on the second line of the LCD.
6. Press the Down button until you see Init NVRAM on the second line of the LCD.
7. Press Select. The LCD displays: Init NVRAM Are you sure?
8. Press Select. The LCD displays the following messages in order:
9. Turn the printer off.
10. After five seconds, turn the printer back on.
***Lemme know if that works for you***
