MG6850 Printer: How to reset the Wifi password?

NickPGSmith — Thu, 14 Nov 2024 06:32:01 GMT

Hello, this seems like an obvious thing, but I have failed to find an option to reset the Wifi password.

The printer has been working connected to my AP for a long time. At some point in the past, I think after a firmware update, it failed to connect to my AP. I have had to use it in DC mode. I don't have WPS on the AP.

Using the Standard Setup or Advanced Setup, I can't see an option to re-enter the wifi password. I get to the point to re-enter the AP name (which is already correct) but then it shows:
- Search for wireless router
- Conecting to the wireless router
- Failed to connect to the wireless router

but without any option to delete/reset the existing settings. Any ideas?

Thanks
