WPS is a router procedure. Wi-Fi direct uses a password. That being said ---
The location of the PIN on an HP printer can vary depending on the model. Here are some common places to look:
|
If admin (Admin) and 12345678 or the above PIN do not allow login, then get a network status printout or ask Microsoft's Copilot
For Wi-Fi direct printing there is no username, you just need the printers Wi-Fi password that comes from the network status printout.
Wi-Fi connection

Ideally, your Wi-Fi printer should connect to the modem or router. If your network has multiple boosters / repeaters, it is possible the printer may connect randomly to any of the units. The router needs to provide the same IP address on every connection. This rarely happens with random connects. An alternate Wi-Fi connection is Wi-Fi direct. Your laptop or smartphone prints directly to the printer and does not go through the router. For web services the printer must be online through the router, but you can still print using Wi-Fi direct. Do not call any phone number revealed in any video or site.
Wi-Fi Direct can be used to avoid configuring the router. Watch this: 6234 Wi-Fi Direct is explained on page 70 of the User Manual, this Wi-Fi setup avoids configuring the router. |
