Another way

The WPS button is to make installation easy. However, you can also do this manually. You did not say what model your printer is, but on my Canon MG5550: SETUP > device settings > LAN settings > Wifi setup. In the Wifi setup menu you can connect to your Wifi router by selecting the correct SSID. Then you must provide the Wifi password (if you don`t know the password, you can look it up in the router). Make sure that both the router and the printer use WPS encryption.
