Connecting the Printer to Wireless Networks

To connect the printer to a wireless network that does not include a WPS-compliant router, ensure
that you set up and configure the printer manually. Before you start, obtain the router setup and
configuration information, such as name and passcode.

Note:

• Wireless networking is available only on printers that have the optional Wireless Network

Adapter installed.

• To access and use the Embedded Web Server on a wireless network, connect the printer to a

wired Ethernet network, then configure the printer to use a wireless network.
