Connecting to a Wireless LAN (MF8580Cdw / MF8280Cw Only)
Wireless routers (or access points) connect the  machine to  a computer  via  radio waves. If  your wireless router  is  equipped with Wi-Fi
Protected Setup  (WPS),  configuring your network is  automatic and  easy. If  your networking devices do not  support automatic
configuration,  or if  you want to  specify  authentication and  encryption settings in detail, you need to  manually set up  the  connection.
Make  sure  that  your computer  is  correctly connected to  the  network.

IMPORTANT
Risk of information  leak
Use  wireless LAN connection at your own discretion  and  at your own risk.  If  the  machine is  connected to  an  unsecured network,
your personal information  might be leaked to  a third party  because  radio waves used in wireless communication can go anywhere
nearby, even beyond walls.
Wireless LAN security
The wireless LAN security that  is  supported by the  machine is  listed below. For the  wireless security compatibility of your wireless
router, see  the  instruction  manuals  for  your networking devices or contact your manufacturer.
128 (104)/64  (40)  bit WEP
WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES -CCMP)
WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES -CCMP)
NOTE
Required devices for wireless LAN connection
The machine does not  come  with a wireless router. Have  the  router  ready as necessary.
The wireless router  must conform to  IEEE  802.11b/g/n  and  be able  to  communicate in 2.4  GHz bandwidth. For more
information, see  the  instruction  manuals  for  your networking devices or contact your manufacturer.
When  using WPS,  two modes  are  available: push  button mode and  PIN  code mode.
Push Button Mode
Find the  WPS mark shown below on  the  package  of your wireless router. Also  make sure  that  there is  a WPS button on  your network ing
device. Setting Up Connection Using  WPS Push Button  Mode
PIN Code Mode
Some  WPS routers do not  support the  push  button mode.  If  WPS PIN  code mode is  mentioned  on  the  package  or in the  instruction
manuals  of your networking device, set up  the  connection by entering  the  PIN  code.  Setting Up Connection Using  WPS PIN Code
