Preparation for Connection
Before Starting Wireless Connection Setup
1.  Make sure that the printer is turned on.  
If the power is on, the (green) POWER lamp (A) will be lit.
Notes on Wireless Connection
Make sure that the computer is connected to the access point (A) (or \
wireless network router) you want to connect your 
printer to. For details on how to check the settings, refer to the manua\
l supplied with the router or contact its manufacturer.
The configuration, router functions, setup procedures and security settings of the network device vary depending on your 
system environment. For details, refer to the manual of your network dev\
ice or contact its manufacturer.
Check if your device supports IEEE802.11n (2.4 GHz), IEEE802.11g or IEEE802.11b.
If your device is set to the "IEEE802.11n only" mode, WEP or TKIP cannot be used as a security protocol. Change the 
security protocol for your device to something other than WEP and TKIP or change the setting to something other than 
"IEEE802.11n only."
For office use, consult your network administrator.
Take added care when connecting to a network that is not protected with s\
ecurity measures, as there is a risk of disclosing 
data such as your personal information to a third party.
An "Ad-hoc connection," which establishes a direct connection to the com\
puter over a wireless connection without an 
access point, is not supported. Be sure to prepare an access point.
