How do you reset password on Aficio MPC 2500 from web image monitor.

Been working on Ricoh machine's for over 10 years now and didn't know about the supervisor logon. Well done Cipher!! Everyday is a school day!

It is no good idea to post this in an open Forum and write below: Don't tell the people...
Yes it can help but yes it can also be used to do some stupid things.
Think about deleting / wiping out this information

P.S.: NV-RAM change has to be paid - that is what I know from my OpCo (Germany)

You can change/delete a admin password by logging into WIM with,

Default

Username: XXX
Password: YYY

If the XXX-account details have been changed and you don't know what to you are in the shit.
You will be looking at a NVRAM replacement to regain control and access to the machine. -

Hence never tell your customer about the 'XXX' account, what they don't know will not hurt them.

if the supervisor is changed, what will you do? i have 3 ways to reset password admin ( right for all ricoh machine )

1. use the supervisor : if the supervisor is default, we can use this way to reset admin return default
2. clear NVRAM : reset NVRAM by the programer which can read/write ic memmory.
3. download NVRAM :
- The machine A ( admin is default ) : export data NVRAM -> SD card (* )
- The machine B ( admin is changed ) : import data SD card (* ) -> NVRAM

Don't do that!

The NVRAM holds loads of machine specific settings. Backup NVRAM contents to an SD-Card. Replace the NVRAM. Perform SP5-801-001 (Memory all clear), and reload the backup.

Backup the NVRAM to an SD card, manually reset the password with a hex editor. then upload back to the machine.

there you go. If you just reload the downloaded data, you;re going in circles

One quick question. If no one currently knows the admin password and service lock has been set by the previous admin person, how do you backup the NVram?

if some one also change the supervisor password what will have to do .......plz help me also thanks

Username: supervisor
Password: (leave blank, there is no password).

If the Supervisors account details have been changed and you don't know what to you are in the shit.
You will be looking at a NVRAM replacement to regain control and access to the machine.
