If you're being prompted for a login username and password on your Ricoh Aficio MP 2000 printer and you haven't set any login details before, there are a few things you can try:

Default Login Credentials: The default username and password for Ricoh printers are often set to "admin" for both the username and password. Try using "admin" as both the username and password to see if it works.

Factory Reset: If the default login credentials don't work, you can try performing a factory reset on your printer. This will reset all settings, including any login information that might have been set. However, keep in mind that a factory reset will also erase any other custom settings you have configured on the printer. To perform a factory reset, you can refer to the printer's user manual or contact Ricoh support for specific instructions.

Probably you can access the settings through the operation screen on the machine.
There you may find this reset setting.

I found a manual here:
https://www.sharp.eu/cps/rde/xbcr/documents/documents/om/34_ppc/MXB382-SC_OM_Start-Guide_GB.pdf

There in it says:
Factory default passwords
When accessing the system settings, the administrator password is required to log in with administrator rights. The system settings can be configured in the Web pages as well as on the operation panel. To access the system settings using the Web pages, a password is also required.
Factory default administrator password is “admin”
Store a new administrator password as soon as the machine is installed.
Once the administrator password has been changed, the new password is required to restore the factory default password. Take care to remember the new password.
Factory default passwords (Web pages)
There are two factory default accounts: "Administrator" and "User". A person who logs in as an "Administrator" can configure all settings in the Web pages. In addition, an administrator can restrict access to other settings by enabling "User" accounts.
Default:
users with password users
admin with password admin

If this has been changed when the machine was installed you have a challenge to find out who changed it and if this person still knows it.

Some routers have passwords printed on the bottom. Most routers use "admin" as username, and then either default password or unique password. In any case, read the user manual, you should find it there. Download Free Manuals

Please provide more information as to you issue such as :
a. model number
b. year manufactured/firmware updated
c.Are you using router wirelessly or hard connected.
d. You have checked the user manual 1st.
e. You have confirmed that you have connectivity with the ISP ( internet service provider)
f. uninstall/ reinstall the router software with the CD provided from the manufacturer.

If you don't have the current password, you will have to press the reset button located next to the power connector port. This will reset it back to factory default settings. The you can access it with your browser:

To access the Web-based management utility:

1 Open your Web browser and enter the IP address of the router into the
Location (for Netscape) or Address (for Internet Explorer) field, then press
Enter. The default IP address of the router is 192.168.0.1

For example, type 192.168.0.1

After the connection is established, the logon screen opens.

2 To log in as an administrator, enter the user name of admin and leave the
password field blank (default), then click OK. The Web management Home
screen opens.

You can download the user manual at:

When the Login pop-up for the Router
appears, please enter “admin” for the
username to access the configuration screen.
(Note: By default, there is no password. If
you cannot get in, please reset the router by
pressing the button next to the antenna on the
back of the router and try logging in again.)
