Followed instructions concerning pushing buttons on the unit... no success
Got it
Let's try connecting it to your Wi-Fi. To connect your HP printer to a Wi-Fi network please do the following:
I don't know how to put printer in WPS connection mode, there is no button for that
Press and hold the Wireless button for five seconds or until the wireless light starts to flash.
the wireless light is flashing
Good.
There is no button on the router, just a light indicator
Please, check if you have a button like this
It can be iether at the front or at the back
there is no buttons on the front and the back just has plug ins
Could you tell me the name of your router please?

Facing the router, on top of the router, look at all the lights. To the farthest to the right what looks like a light is actually a button. That's the WPS button.
yes I see it, it is flashing when I pushed it
Please, make sure that the light on your printer is flashing too - that's when they'll be able to connect
yes they are both flashing
Wait for the Wireless light or bar on the printer to stop flashing - that's when the printer is connected to the network.
Light on the wireless button on printer still flashing
I see. Please try to repeat these steps:
the light on the printer has stopped flashing
Great! It's supposed to be connected now. Please, check it
