@00z, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 

For the HP Laser MFP 139w, the Wi-Fi Direct password is typically found in one of the following places:

Printer Information Sheet:

  • You can print a Network Configuration Page or Wi-Fi Direct Info Page from the printer. This usually contains the Wi-Fi Direct name (SSID) and password.
  • To print this:
    • Press and hold the Cancel and Wi-Fi buttons together for about 5 seconds (or until the printer prints a report).

HP Smart App:

  • If your printer is already added to the HP Smart app, you can view or change the Wi-Fi Direct settings (including the password) from the app.

Embedded Web Server (EWS):

  • If the printer is connected to a network, you can access its settings via a browser:
    • Find the printer’s IP address (from the configuration page).
    • Enter the IP in a browser to open the EWS.
    • Navigate to Network > Wi-Fi Direct to view or change the password.

Default Password:

  • If you haven’t changed it, try using the default password: 12345678.
  • Some users report that the PIN shown on the label or info sheet is not the Wi-Fi Direct password.

If none of these work and the password is not visible in the cartridge area or on a label, resetting the network settings might help:

To Reset Network Settings:

  1. Turn off the printer.
  2. Press and hold the Wi-Fi button.
  3. While holding it, turn the printer back on.
  4. Keep holding until the Wi-Fi light blinks rapidly.

This will reset the Wi-Fi settings, including Wi-Fi Direct, and allow you to set it up again.

 

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
