HP OfficeJet 6950

I am trying to set up my HPOffice Jet6950 wirelessly to my laptops.  Everything was going just fine during setup until I had to enter my wireless passcode for my internet.  My passcode has three hypens in it (2934-9876-9999).   There isn't a hypen option on the printer to choose from so my wireless passcode isn't accepted.  I have no idea how to change my wireless password, so I'm stuck with it.  I've tried spaces and the numbers altogether, but it won't accept it.

Has anyone else had a hyphen problem?    Do you know if there's another symbol I can use that would substitute the hyphen?

You must cycle through all button on the front panel by pressing them over and over again until they repeat.  This includes the # and * buttons.  If not there...

 

You can try using EWS to input a hyphen, read your User Guide.

 

If this does not work, you must change your routers password to not include this character.
