Hello, I just bought a Pixma MX475 printer but there's no manual included on how to connect my box to the printer so I can use it via Wi-Fi. I'm being asked for the password phrase, but where can I find it??? My box has a WPS button, how can I activate it on my printer?

Best regards

Configuration: Android / Chrome 73.0.3683.90

    Hello,

    A setup guide is normally provided with your printer. It is >here<.
    On page 5, it explains how to establish the Wi-Fi connection.

    The complete printer manual is >here<.

      Thank you for your response. I tried the WPS procedure, so I pressed WPS on my box for 5 seconds and then OK on the printer, but it doesn't work. I then tried the simple setup; it finds my box, but when I click on it, it asks for a passphrase. Where can I find that?

        >> I click on that liqueur << ?????

        You are asked for the wifi password.

        You can either connect using WPS (it's immediate) or do a traditional connection: the printer finds the wifi network and asks you for the wifi password.
        This password is provided by your ISP along with the box (for instance, with Orange) or you can choose it yourself (with Free among others).

      The password is the wifi key?
