You can change/delete a admin password by logging into WIM with,
Default
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.
Hence never tell your customer about the 'supervisor' account, what they don't know will not hurt them.
- Knowledge not shared, is eventually knowledge that becomes lost... like tears in the rain.

Only thing you can do in Supervisor is to change the admin pw.
You never realize how cheap a professional is until after you let an amateur do it.

Hi Folks, newb disclaimer this is my first post here and I have precious little experience with Ricohs. That said, I'm trying to get into my own device, an MP C2500 and having some of my best times as you can imagine. What works: sign into Web Image Monitor as Supervisor. What doesn't: try to change the password for admin. The error I see is "This device is currently in use by other functions. Please try again later."
It's now later (post power cycle) and I'm getting the same message. My question is, is there another management interface through which I can manage users? Failing that, is there a way to "coax" the telnet UI to change the password for another user?
Screenshot attached, if that helps.
Thanks in advance,

When you go in as "supervisor" just leave the password blank, in other words change it back to default. Same with changing the username, change it to the default, admin.
If the usertools display is on, you will get that "in use" message.

Jo, uou were right. The Usertools page was hanging up a change of password. The pw change worked great once I'd closed it!
Thanks a bunch.
