Recovering Lost Passwords
Use the LQUERYSEED and LBYPASSPASSWORD commands to recover lost
passwords.
Syntax:
@PJL LQUERYSEED[<CR>]<LF>
@PJL LBYPASSPASSWORD KEY = "
key
"[<CR>]<LF>
Use the following steps to retrieve lost passwords:
1
Send the LQUERYSEED command to the printer by one of the host computer
interfaces.
This command causes a value, the “seed,” to display on the printer control panel,
through MarkVision Professional or, if there is not an LCD panel, to print on the
Menu Settings Page. The value of the “seed” determines the
key
.
2
Obtain the
key
from the Lexmark Customer Support Center.
You must have the “seed” value.
3
Send the @PJL LBYPASSPASSWORD command to the printer by any port.
If the correct
key
is specified, a modified version of the directory is produced.
The directory indicates the appropriate passwords for the flash or disk.
