Connect an Epson with the WPS button

Skip typing the password: the WPS push-button method pairs the printer and router in about two minutes.

01 · Identify — does this match what you see?

  • You don't want to type a long Wi-Fi password on a small screen
  • Your router has a WPS button
  • The Setup Wizard keeps rejecting a correct password

02 · Resolve — follow in order

  1. 1

    On the printer, go to Settings → Network Settings → Wi-Fi Setup → Push Button Setup (WPS).

  2. 2

    Within two minutes, press and hold the WPS button on your router until its light flashes.

  3. 3

    Wait for the printer to show “Connection successful”.

  4. 4

    If it times out, run it again — the two-minute window closes quickly.

  5. 5

    Print a status sheet to confirm the connection.

Pro tip

If WPS fails three times, your router may have it disabled — log into the router's admin page and switch WPS on, or use the Setup Wizard instead.
