Using the SecureEasySetup™ software to configure your machine for a
wireless network
Important
Make sure that you have finished the
instructions from STEP 1 Setting Up the
Machine in the Quick Setup Guide.
The SecureEasySetup™ software allows you to
configure the wireless network easier than
configuring it manually. By pushing a button on the
wireless router or access point, you can setup the
wireless network and security settings. Your router or
access point must also support SecureEasySetup™.
See the user’s guide for your wireless LAN router or
access point for instructions to configure your
machine for a wireless network. If your wireless router
or access point does not support SecureEasySetup™
go to the next page for installation instructions.
Note
Routers or access points that support
SecureEasySetup™ have the
SecureEasySetup™ symbol as shown below.
