My new T-Mobile internet does not have a WPS button. My HP LaserJet Pro M148f-M149f needs to connect to this network, but I only see the WPS option. Is there any other way to connect my printer to the network? I usually do print from my phone and that requires my printer to be connected to the same network for a wireless connection.

Thank you. I originally tried that and my HP LaserJet Pro M148f did not register that a network was connected for wireless printing. Wireless is necessary for printing from my phone.

 

After more searching I was able to connect using Wifi-Direct! Unfortunately, the next day the printer's Wifi Direct network couldn't be discovered—on any of my devices. Nonetheless this is still a viable solution for someone else. 

 

I ended up getting a Wifi Extender and hardwiring my printer to the router extender...now it is on the network that I need for wireless printing.
