Windows 10: WPS Pin on Dell Printer

I am trying to find the WPS Pin on my Dell Printer E310dw. I set it up before with their support team. However the warranty ran out and I am not paying for another printer {second time already}, or an extended warranty. I got a new modem and ran into this problem. Any help is appreciated.


Thank you.

WPS Pin needed for HP printer

regardless if you push the manual button or turn it on in the modem/router settings, The OP wants to connect the printer, which means a simple retrieve the PIN CODE on the UNIT and enter it.

There is no more to do.

All I ever do is turn on WPS and connect a PC or printer and enter the PIN# in the discovered items list. The same list you find it and enter the encryption key from the network taskbar tray icon.

I never had to mess with any printer itself to connect WPS. Hmmmmm.

 

WPS PIN for printer installation

I don't think you read my post clearly.

The printer IS on the wifi network.

Windows is STILL asking for a WPS PIN.

The printer DOES NOT HAVE A WPS PIN. This is not an option. It doesn't exist. Yes, I've printed the network info from the printer. No such animal.

I need WINDOWS to stop asking for a number that doesn't exist!

 

WPS PIN for printer installation

My canon pixma mx492 worked just fine for well over a year, but today suddenly won't connect. In my various troubleshooting I uninstalled the printer and then rebooted everything to reinstall it. The reboot of the computer involved a Windows 10 update.
After this reboot an update, and after previously updating the printer driver, the computer was able to find the printer on the network, but when I click "add device" I am suddenly asked to enter a WPS pin. This should not happen, as this pin should only be
used to connect the printer to the wireless network, which was already done via WPS and the physical button. Furthermore, my printer does not have a WPS pin! It can only connect using the WPS button! I have even called Canon and their experts agree that Windows
should not be asking for this number. What can I do to get around this dialogue and finish reinstalling my printer?
