Where to find the WPS Pin for my printer

[Anton1200]

We changed our wireless router/modem so now the network is different. As my laptop wasn't synching with my printer HP office jet Pro 8710, I removed that device and then attempted to re-add it.  In the process I was asked to enter the WPS Pin for the printer.  The prompt says:  You can find the WPS Pin on your Direct-Er-HP Office Jet Pro 8710 or in the info that came with it.  I am unable to locate this info. Help.

Welcome to HP Support Forum. WPS PIN should be at the back of your router (if supported) not from your printer. Please watch the following video which is for a different printer but very similar, if not the same

How to Find the WPS PIN to Complete Printer Setup

Forget using a PIN.  Just run the Wireless Setup Wizard from the front panel to connect to your routers SSID with password.

The WPS Pin is accessed from the printer control panel going through the Wizard Set up option to the Wireless Protected option.  You press a button, then the WPS Pin number flashes briefly, and then disappears. Then another number appears. Grab any one and insert into computer Windows Devices - Printer field (add device) before disappears. That's it.

Disappointed that no one has answered this question since I have the same question a few months later.
