Where is the WPS Pin on my HP Printer?







To find your HP printer's WPS PIN, follow these steps.


Understanding WPS PIN: Your WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) PIN is a unique 8-digit number assigned specifically to your printer that helps establish a secure wireless connection between it and the router.

Check Your Printer's Control Panel: With most HP printers, the WPS PIN can be located on its control panel. Navigating through its menu options should bring up wireless or network settings which should contain WPS setup/PIN setup options - although location may differ depending on which model printer you own.

Use Your Printer's Built-In Display: Some HP printers feature an onboard display which provides information and settings. If yours does, look for wireless or network settings and any menu that pertains to WPS setup/PIN setup/PIN generation; navigate through each option until you locate your WPS PIN number.

Print a Network Configuration Page: Many HP printers allow you to easily print a network configuration page that contains useful information about the network settings of your printer, including its WPS PIN. To do this, access your printer's control panel, navigate to its network or settings menu, and look for "Print Configuration," "Print Network Settings," or similar options in its menu - following its instructions should allow you to print this valuable page.

Check Your Printer's Documents: If none of the methods above prove successful in finding and entering your WPS PIN, consult your printer's user manual or documentation for instructions on locating and entering it. It can usually be found either printed with your printer or online as PDF document from its manufacturer.

Look for a label on the printer: Certain HP printers feature labels with crucial information, including your WPS PIN. Carefully examine your printer near the control panel, back panel or bottom where a label may indicate your WPS PIN or wireless setup details; be on the lookout for stickers or labels that mention this or take note if you come across one!

Contact HP Support: If all other options have failed to produce results, reaching out to HP support may prove useful. Navigating their website, search for your printer model and locate any contact info such as phone numbers, emails or live chat services before explaining your issue with them; hopefully they should be able to assist.

Keep in mind that the process for finding your WPS PIN may differ depending on your HP printer model, so it's always advisable to refer to its manual or contact HP support for specific instructions on finding it.
