CAUTION: Losing passwords can eliminate access to an MFP. Be careful to record them in a safe place. It is most important to remember the Bootloader password. With it, it is possible to restore the MFPs to factory default settings. Without it, the only way to restore the MFPs is to involve an HPauthorized service technician to reset the entire MFP. You may wish to use a password vault program to organize and store the passwords. Here is a list of the passwords you should configure: • Web Jetadmin password (required during installation of Web Jetadmin) • SNMPv3 credentials • Bootloader Password • EWS Password • Device Password • File system password • Fax PIN • Device PIN (for MFP functions) • User PIN (for individual user accounts) • PJL password Use good practices for setting and updating passwords (some of the password settings require certain parameters): • Use alpha and numeric characters. • Use passwords with at least 8 digits. • Avoid using the same password for more than one setting (however, some passwords are synchronized in the MFP). • Avoid using a pattern for passwords. • Change the passwords often. Settings List This chapter is a bulleted list of the settings recommended in this checklist. It does not include instructions or explanations. Use it to check-off each setting as you follow the instructions in the Network Security chapter (above). See the Ramifications section (below) for information on each setting. NOTE: These settings are recommended settings for reasonable security on the most common networks that include MFPs. MFPs configured according to this list are considered reasonably secure, but HP does not warrant or guarantee that this configuration prevents or limits networks from malicious attacks. CAUTION: Remember that these settings are recommended for the most common types of networks. Your network likely requires some configurations that are not recommended in this checklist. Consider each setting for your unique network. 65

CAUTION:
Losing passwords can eliminate access to an MFP. Be careful to record
them in a safe place. It is most important to remember the Bootloader
password. With it, it is possible to restore the MFPs to factory default
settings. Without it, the only way to restore the MFPs is to involve an HP-
authorized service technician to reset the entire MFP. You may wish to use
a password vault program to organize and store the passwords.
Here is a list of the passwords you should configure:
Web Jetadmin password (required during installation of Web Jetadmin)
SNMPv3 credentials
Bootloader Password
EWS Password
Device Password
File system password
Fax PIN
Device PIN (for MFP functions)
User PIN (for individual user accounts)
PJL password
Use good practices for setting and updating passwords (some of the password settings require certain
parameters):
Use alpha and numeric characters.
Use passwords with at least 8 digits.
Avoid using the same password for more than one setting (however, some passwords are
synchronized in the MFP).
Avoid using a pattern for passwords.
Change the passwords often.
