SOURCE: Can't find WPS button on router?

Wrong question and the answer is a bit more complicated than I can just type here, First the WPS is a fancy feature that I will not Google to find out about, second if you have a wireless printer and you want to configure it for a network you must have a wireless router. so if you do not have this then you will need to connect your printer (using USB) directly to your computer.

I am trying to hook up my canon mx472 to wireless (shaw internet) and it won't ask for the password. Therefore...no connection.

If the router/modem has WPS:

WPS Connection Method
  1. Make sure that the printer is turned on. Press & hold the [Wi-Fi] button on the top of the printer until the alarm lamp flashes once.
  2. Make sure that the lamp next to this button starts to flash blue and then go to your access point and press the [WPS] button within 2 minutes.

If your router does not have a clearly marked 'WPS' button, please use the CD with your computer to perform the standard wireless installation.

I need to know how to change the touchpad on cannon printer to be able to enter numbers to put in my internet password although it says passfraze not sure what that is or how to retrieve it

The passphrase is the password your router needs to connect the printer to the router. If your printer has a WPS connection ability, you can push the WPS button on your router and it should complete the connection without the need for any input from you.

Where do I find the WPS PIN on my canon mg3220 printer. I need it for installation on a new router

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.

Hp printer says to press the WPS button on the router. What's that?

  • Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easy and secure wireless network set up and connections.
  • WPS lets you use push buttons or PINS instead of entering a network name (SSID) and wireless security by hand.
  • Push button: The WPS button is either on the product or a clickable button on a wizard or utility screen.
  • Personal Identification Number (PIN): The PIN is either on a product label or can be viewed on a wizard or utility screen. The PIN is entered for either the router or access point, or for the wireless device that wants to join the network.

Does the linksys-G support WPS or AOSS?

Good question, I have the same router & Brother HL-2280DW and ran the printer setup CD from Windows XP SP3 via temporary USB connection & it seemed to work. The WAN report on the printer itself says OK, however the computer can't seem to find the printer "No devices could be found on the network." I let setup make changes to Windows Firewall, not sure about Microsoft Security Essentials however. This seems like a nice printer/copier at a nice price but this setup is frustrating! PS If it's a security issue I'd like to say thanks to all the hackers for ruining technology for everyone, your junk is responsible for slowing down & complicating computers & technology in the world. Someone please do everyone a favor & start making antibodies that *kill* viruses & spyware & spam and clean & speed things up for a change! All these villians - Where are the cyber super heroes????
