What If You Do Not Have the Admin Password?
This is the trickier part. You do not have the administrator password to access WIM. I have found a solution on the Internet which might help you solve this problem. Please be aware that I do not personally own a Aficio SP 4100N so this solution might not be working.You can change/delete a admin password by logging into WIM (Web Image Monitor) with the default user name and password:
- Username: supervisor
- Password: (leave blank, there is no password).
- Download Aficio 615C Twain Driver
- Dell Laser MFP 1815dn Driver for Vista
THANK YOU!!!!
The alternate supervisor login worked perfectly!
Do to ‘fat-fingers’ i had missed type (twice!) the administrator password for the Web Interface and was no longer able to login!! YIKES!!!
Fortunately I stumbled accross you answer on how to reset the admin password and it worked perectly! Thanks for posting this info since I was not able to find it anywhere else – not even the Ricoh website!!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Hi Allen,
No problem, glad to see the information is useful for you ;)
I second that. Thanks!
This worked on the Ricoh MP161 that I received from an office that closed.
