Download the T-Mobile internet app and change the password format option, there is a list. You may need to have the printer on so the app will see it. I forget which one worked, but there are maybe 3 choices, maybe something like n or n2? When you get the right one the printer will be able to log in because it can see the password. My printer gets connected by manually entering the login on a menu physically on the printer itself.
But, the OP's printer is only 2 months old.
