    Only one solution : a new NVRAM.

        No, that only reverts all settings to default, but it leaves authentication settings intact.

              This pretty much says it all.
              NEVER ASSUME ANYTHING

                Just buy an NVRAM, but first copy the contents of the 'old' NVRAM to an SD-card. When the new NVRAM is in place, copy the contents of the SD-card to the new NVRAM.

                The NVRAM from your other machine holds all the settings of that machine. It's not recommended to place that NVRAM in another machine.

                  I'd be careful with the backup and restore recommendation, the admin password setting you are trying to be rid of are very likely to be transferred over (I have had this happen) and you will then have two useless NVRAMs. It is more labour intensive but I'd suggest printing all non-default data and inputting all relevant SPs manually. Note the counter will be lost, record last known meter so the true total is maintained.

                  I would not recommend using another machine's NVRAM as mentioned already.

                    I thought passwords are never transferred when doing backups? If this can happen then it may be a good idea to input all default setting manually.

                        Hi, try putting "supervisor" in the user without password and then go to options disables the option of users and passwords. greetings. If that does not copy data from one machine and do the same model back up the nvram on a SD card and copy the data on the copier with problems but you have to put the same name as the other machine

                          In Aficio 1060 I inserted the NVRAM vice versa , turned on the copiers, turned off and inserted the NVRAM correctly. So did reset NVRAM. What do you think?

                            I think it's asking for trouble in the near future...

                            The NVRAM hold very specific settings that are unique for a machine. Messing with NVRAM's is asking for trouble!
