Xerox 7545 admin password reset

[slash]

Hi

I'm trying to reset admin password on X7545. SM give me 2 option: calling Welcome Centre or Regular AltBoot.

I read SM and found dC301, is anyone try to reset password with dC301?

If no other option is able to reset password, how can I get software to make Regular altoot.

Thx for any help

System software is available in GSN library #11428 or Xerox Business Services, Digital Printing Equipment. To load SW onto the USB Flash Drive perform the following:

1. Connect the Flash Drive to a USB port on your PWS.
   NOTE:
   You should not have an upgrade folder and an altboot folder in the root of the Flash Drive at the same time.
   
   
2. Create a folder named upgrade at the root level of the Flash Drive.
   
3. Navigate to the root directory of the Flash Drive.
   NOTE:
   If you have more than one file with the suffix .dlm inside the upgrade folder on the Flash Drive, the latest version will be automatically selected.
   
   
4. Locate the Machine SW folder. Inside the folder will be a file with the name WorkCentre_7500-system-sw#061120000*****# .dlm, where ***** is the version number of the software. Copy this file to the upgrade folder on the USB Flash Drive.
   
5. Remove the Flash Drive from your PWS.

Loading Software

1. Switch on the machine power and wait for the machine to boot up.
   
2. Perform an NVM Save, dC361.
   
3. Perform the Network Clone procedure, GP 13.
   
4. If possible, complete or delete all pending print jobs. If the prints jobs cannot be deleted, warn the customer that all pending jobs will be lost.
   
5. Before software is loaded, ensure that the machine is in a fully operational condition. Any active faults or jams must be resolved before starting this procedure
   
6. Connect the USB Flash Drive to one of the USB Ports on the Control Unit

Thanks for replying

I have SM for this machine. I'll try reloading software, if it fails, I'll let you know.

I have software, SM. Thank you for helping and tell me, is it woks?

I've read that dc301 is a part of upgerading software. Do I need to make dc301 after altboot?

"dC301 NVM Initialization
Purpose
This procedure may be needed when the machine cannot recover for some unknown reasons,
including problems such as producing blank copies/prints, continuously declaring system
faults, etc. It is also required as part of the software upgrade process."
