Xpress m2885fw WPS pin number;how can i found it?

If I understand correctly, you're looking for the WPS Pin toneatablish an Internet connection- the wps "pin" or "key" as it's often called is on your router, usually it's found on the bottom side and will be printed on a sticker/label with some additional information related to the router. Thanks and best of luck. Please see pic below!

It doesn't generate it's own pin. You need to connect the printer to the wifi with the PIN of the WPS function of your router.

or, just fill in the password, which always works.

The wps pin method is bit tricky however it will help you get the work done. you need few details upfront in order to connect brother printer with wifi using wps pin method. details such as -

1. Your router must be an wps Enable Router that support WPS Pin method
2. default router details such as default ip address or web address to access the portal

I believe that Justus answer is incorrect and looks to be AI Produced. The SSID WPS PIN number is on the Router not on the printer. You tell the router to search for the printer, and you tell the printer to look for the Router. When they find each other, the Printer will ask you to enter the SSID and WPS Password that is on the Router. This is the way I did my Canon MG7120 to a Bell Home Hub Router. The process is the same setting up my iPhones for WiFi.

Go to the menu button on the printer (choose the option above "OK" button), choose "Network" (Get this option by keep pressing the Menu button until the "Network" option is shown and hit "OK")--"Network Configuration"--"Print". Page #2 of the printout will shown the WPS pin number of your printer. There are two WPS serial numbers shown, but the one on the bottom called "WPS-Pin for NFC" worked for me.

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easy and secure wireless network set up and connections. Some of NETGEAR's products use the name Push 'n' Connect for WPS. To use WPS, your product must support WPS and be compatible with WPA security. WPS can automatically set up a random network name (SSID) and strong WPA wireless security for wireless routers, access points, computers, adapters, Wi-Fi phones, and other electronic devices.
WPS lets you use a push button or enter a personal identification number (PIN) instead of manually entering a network name (SSID) and password:

• Push button. The WPS button is either a button on the product or a an option on the wizard or utility screen.

If you don't know it, you won't be able to automate your Wifi Protected Setup (WPS). The pin is a very specific way to prevent yourself from always having to remember codes, keys, passphrases, etc. Without it, its like saying that you want to to connect to Bank of America, and that it's just okay because you want it to happen.

The following is taken from the ESR-9753 manual:



- Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

WPS is the simplest way to establish a connection between the wireless clients
and the wireless router. You don’t have to select the encryption mode and fill in a
long encryption passphrase every time when you try to setup a wireless
connection. You only need to press a button on both wireless client and wireless
router, and the WPS will do the rest for you.

The wireless router supports two types of WPS: WPS via Push Button and
WPS via PIN code. If you want to use the Push Button, you have to push a
specific button on the wireless client or in the utility of the wireless client to start
the WPS mode, and switch the wireless router to WPS mode. You can simply
push the WPS button of the wireless router, or click the ‘Start to Process’ button
in the web configuration interface. If you want to use the PIN code, you have to
know the PIN code of the wireless client and switch it to WPS mode, then fill-in
the PIN code of the wireless client through the web configuration interface of the
wireless router.

Hi...if your router has WPS capability, such as a special button to set up wireless security, then to use it your client computer/device must also be WPS enabled.

If it is, there are usually two options to configure WPS security: the push button method, or the PIN number. The push button method usually requires that you press the WPS button on the router, then within a set time, press the equivalent button on the computer (eg laptop, or whatever device it is). The PIN number method requires a PIN to be entered into the client computer. The PIN can sometimes be found on a sticker on the router.

Your manual should help with the details, but see this page for some more info.

If you don't have a WPS enabled computer or don't want to use it, you can set up security manually. Please come back to Fixya if you'd like help with this.
