S
SSID Service Set Identifier: A unique identifier (up to 32 characters) that differentiates
one wireless local area network (WLAN) from another. The SSID is also known as
the network name. The name of the network to which the Kodak All-in-One printer
is connected is called its SSID.
Speed The speed at which data is transmitted over a network. Speeds include 10TX-Full,
10TX-Half, 100TX-Full, and 100TX-Half.
Subnet Mask A subnet is an IP Address assigned by the installation software to make an
additional network available as part of a larger network. Subnets are specified by a
subnet mask. This mask determines which of the Kodak All-in-One printer IP
address bits identify the network and subnet, and which bits identify the device
itself. Kodak recommends that the All-in-One printer and the computers that use it
all reside on the same subnet.

U
USB Universal Serial Bus. A connection protocol between a peripheral device and a
computer, allowing electronic data/signals to be transmitted back and forth. It is
used commonly to connect a portable storage device such, as a “thumb” or “flash”
drive, to a PC or Macintosh desktop or laptop computer. The Kodak All-in-One
printer has a USB port on the front panel for external USB devices to plug into, and
another one on the back panel to connect the printer to a computer via a USB cable.
W
WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy. A deprecated algorithm to secure wireless networks.
Wireless networks broadcast messages using radio, so are more susceptible to
eavesdropping than wired networks. WEP was intended to provide confidentiality
comparable to that of a traditional wired network. The WEP standard only defines a
10 or 26 character “key” in hexadecimal (0-9+A-F). A WEP password is generated
by the router manufacturer and as such, a password for a Linksys router will not be
the same on a NetGear router.
Wi-Fi Wireless Fidelity. A common “shorthand” name for wireless computer networking.
WPA Wi-Fi Protected Access. A class of systems to secure wireless (Wi-Fi) computer
networks. WPA is designed to work with pre-WPA wireless network interface cards
(through firmware upgrades), but not necessarily with first generation wireless
access points. WPA2 implements the full standard, but will not work with some
older network cards.
WPA Key A WPA key is an encryption key for wireless networking devices.
WPS Wireless Provisioning Services. A standards-based and integrated platform to
provide secure Wi-Fi hotspots. WPS enables enterprises to easily provide guest
access with enhanced security to private wireless Internet and corporate networks.
