Removing a Password
If you have forgotten your password and you do not want to set a
new one, there are two ways to remove the current password:
Disable the existing password
Disable the password function.
To do either of these procedures, you must reset a jumper on the
main system board.
Note
If you are using network server mode and you remove the
password, the computer automatically turns off network
server mode.
If you want to be able to set a new password later without having
to change the jumper setting again, disable the existing password
(not the password function). See “Disabling an existing
password,” below, for instructions.
If you disable the password function, you cannot set a new
password unless you perform the steps to disable the existing
password at that time. If you do not want to use a password
anymore, follow the instructions under “Disabling the password
function” below.
