Change from a USB connection to a wireless network

If you first set up your printer and installed the software with a USB cable, directly connecting the printer to

your computer, you can easily change to a wireless network connection. You will need a wireless 802.11b/g/n

network that includes a wireless router or access point.

NOTE:

The printer only supports wireless connections using 2.4GHz.

Before changing from a USB connection to a wireless network, make sure that:

The printer is connected to your computer with the USB cable until you are prompted to disconnect the

cable.

The computer is connected to the wireless network that you intend to install the printer on.
