@Diane1314, Welcome to the HP Support Community!  

  

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding Find the Wireless Network Password or PIN! 

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.  

  

A wireless network password or PIN is often required to connect a printer or other type of wireless device to your Wi-Fi network. Here are instructions on how to find the necessary information:

Find the WPS PIN

Find and enter the WPS PIN to complete printer setup. Here's how:

  1. WPS PIN Prompt:
    • After the WPS PIN prompt displays on the computer, look for a PIN on the printer control panel or the information sheet that printed during setup.
    • Enter the PIN, and then click Next to finish the setup.
    • If the PIN does not work, try generating a new PIN by restarting your computer and going through the printer setup process again.

Find the Wireless Network Password on the Router

If you need to find the wireless network password, check your router:

Locate the Router Label:

  • Look for the label on your router, typically located on the bottom or side.
  • Find the password underneath or next to the Wireless Network Name (SSID).

Contact ISP:

  • If you cannot find the password on the router or the password does not work, check any paperwork that came with the router or contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) for additional help.  

 

Hope this helps! 

Take care, and have an amazing day!
