FOR

ACCESS

AGAIN

If your wireless settings have changed, you must run the printer wireless setup again. Some reasons your settings
may have changed include your having manually changed your WEP or WPA keys, channel, or other network
settings; or the access point having been reset to factory defaults.

Running the wireless setup again can also resolve issues due to misconfigurations that occurred when configuring
the printer for wireless access.

Notes:

If you change network settings, change them on all the network devices before changing them for the access
point.

If you have already changed the wireless network settings on your access point, then you must change the
settings on all the other network devices before you can see them on the network.
