The home network went down and I am having to reset up the printers.  When I try to setup the OfficeJet Pro 6978, it asks for a Pin Number.  I can't find one anywhere on it.  Ideas?  T hanks.

Hi @Snflower ,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community.

 

I'd like to help!

 

I understand that you are looking for the WPS pin to setup the printer over wireless, is that right?

Not to worry, I will be glad to help. 

 

The WPS pin will be printed on the bottom of your router. 

If you need assistance in setting up the printer over wireless. 

Recommend you refer to this Article

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
