I’m trying to connect a HP 3056A for wireless printing. I expected to see a WPS button on the physical device, then expected to see a button on the https://192.168.100.1/ settings page. Didn’t see that anywhere, nor Surfboard Central app. There is also an option on the HP printer for a printer pin that I’m supposed to enter on the router settings. I looked on Surfboard Central for my W121 mesh network, didn’t see anything. Can someone point me in the right direction?

did you try installing the printer using HP’s smart app?

hi @bskinny129  the S33 is just a cable modem with no advanced settings on it therefore no WPS connection, now the W21 does not support the WPS connection either. 

My best advise is to connect your printer via wifi, you can create a guest network only for your printer if you are having issues connecting to the primary network

HP’s smart app worked, thanks for the tip!


Glad it worked!
