How do you connect your printer to a computer using a WPS PIN?
The WPS connection is a Wifi Protected Setup. This type of connection makes it easy to access the network without the need for a password. Based on the previous configuration of the router, we may be asked for a PIN,
However, in other cases, it may ask for nothing and it will be processed automatically.
To connect our Printer to WiFi through a WPS connection we need the following:
A printer that supports Wi-Fi and WPS functionality
A Router With WPS Buttons
A wireless network with a WPA or WPA2 password.
We don’t need a computer to connect our printer with this method, just the printer and an active WiFi network.
What we have to do is hold down the WPS button on the printer (which is an icon with an antenna and curved signals on the sides) until it blinks.
If the printer does not have this button, we need to enter network configuration or wireless configuration, where we will find the WPS option. Then we will click on “Start”.
Once we have done this in our printer, we have to go to our router and press the WPS button until the light starts blinking. After this, the printer should be connected to WiFi, although it may take up to 2 minutes to complete the connection.
Afterward, all we need to do is install our printer’s software on the device we want to print from, which can be a smartphone, tablet, or computer. And you are ready to proceed with printing!
