Hi @Dee417,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
To connect your HP DeskJet 3512 printer to Wi-Fi without using WPS or a PIN, you can use the HP Smart app or the printer's control panel. Here’s how to do it step by step.
Using the HP Smart App
Download the HP Smart App:
- If you haven't already, download the HP Smart app from the Microsoft Store for Windows or App Store for iOS or Android.
Open the HP Smart App:
- Make sure your smartphone or computer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network you want to connect your printer to.
Add Printer:
- Open the app and tap on the “+” icon or “Add Printer”.
Select Your Printer:
- The app should search for nearby printers. Select your HP DeskJet 3512 from the list.
Follow On-Screen Instructions:
- Choose the option to connect the printer to Wi-Fi. The app will guide you through the setup process.
Enter Wi-Fi Credentials:
- You will need to enter your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password when prompted.
Using the Printer Control Panel
If the app does not work, you can try connecting through the printer's control panel:
Power On the Printer:
- Ensure the printer is turned on.
Access Settings:
- On the printer's control panel, navigate to the “Wireless” or “Setup” menu.
Select Wireless Setup Wizard:
- Look for the “Wireless Setup Wizard” option. This will allow the printer to search for available networks.
Choose Your Network:
- From the list of available networks, select your Wi-Fi network.
Enter Wi-Fi Password:
- Enter your Wi-Fi password using the control panel buttons. Make sure you enter it correctly.

Confirm Connection:
- Once you enter the password, confirm the connection. The printer should connect to the Wi-Fi network.
Note:
- After connecting, print a network configuration page to confirm the printer is connected to the Wi-Fi network.
- You can also return to the HP Smart app to check the connection status and perform print or scan tasks.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
