Configuration using the Brother installer application on the CD-ROM to configure your wireless network printer
(Recommended)
• Configuration temporarily using a network cable
If there is an Ethernet Hub or Router in the same network as the wireless access point (A) of your printer, you can
temporarily connect the Hub or Router to the printer using an Ethernet cable (B), this is an easy way to configure the
printer. You can then remotely configure the printer from a computer on the network.
For instructions, go to Configuration in Infrastructure mode, using a network cable temporarily on page 36.
Configuration using the automatic wireless (one-push) method
If your wireless access point (A) supports either SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (PBC
) or AOSS™, you
do not need to use a computer to configure the wireless settings. The access point (router) and your printer can
automatically negotiate using the SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ or AOSS™ procedure.
