Hi @PoppyCharles,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I'd be happy to help you! 

 

I understand that you are facing issues with the PIN incorrect error. 

 

I believe you are trying to connect to the wi-fi direct network of the printer and it's asking for the wi-fi direct password. 

Try the default password as 12345678. 

If it doesn't work then provide the below details: 

  • What's the Wi-Fi light status on the Printer(Blinking or Steady)?
  • Could you share the screen where it's asking for the password?

Follow the steps mentioned on this website to set up the printer:- click here

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
