Hi @Paul1-_,

Thank you for becoming an HP Forum member. It is a great location to get help from the community, get suggestions and find what has worked for others!

Going through your post, I understand you want to know the WPS pin. Don't worry I'd be glad to assist you.

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

• DId this occur after a power outage or surge?
• Did it occur after a software or windows update?
• Did you run HP print and scan doctor?
• Did you move the router or change the router by any chance?
• Is it connected to the network via a router or using the WiFi direct feature without a router?

Please follow all the relevant steps from this link:https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c06006790 (HP Printers - Enter WPS PIN Prompt When Adding a Printer (Windows 10)

 and then check if the issue gets resolved. This should work. If the issue continues then try these steps:

•  Perform steps from the section “Step 1: Restart the computer, printer, and router”
• Then run all the latest Windows 10 updates and ensure that they are correctly installed on the computer.
• Then update the printer’s firmware using a USB cable by following instructions from this link: https://support.hp.com/bg-en/document/c02919168 
• Use a USB cable if required.
• Update the router's firmware if available.

Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require further assistance!

Good luck 🙂

Welcome to HP support community.

If a prompt to enter a WPS PIN displays when you are connecting a printer, check the printer control panel or for a page that prints to obtain the PIN. The password is time-sensitive (valid for 90 seconds for many models), and then becomes invalid.

Go to An 'Enter WPS PIN' Message Displays During Printer Setup for more information.

I hope that helps.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.
