Scanning FAQ
How can I improve the quality of a scan?
Make sure your original documents are in good condition.
Make sure the application that receives the scanned document is appropriate. For example, if you are scanning a
photo to edit it, then make sure you choose a photo editing application to receive the scan. If you are scanning a
document to edit the text, then make sure you choose an OCR application.
Use a high resolution.
How do I scan in black and white?
Color is the default for all scans. To scan in black and white, press the Color/Black button on the printer control panel
to switch from color to black and white.
Why am I being asked for a PIN?
PINs are a security measure used to restrict the scanned information from going into certain locations, or to keep what
is being scanned from being seen or used by others. You may be prompted to enter a PIN if the network computer you
are scanning to requires one.
To learn how PINs get assigned to network computers, see the Help for the printer software associated with your
operating system.

							What is an application list, and how do I update it?
When you scan a file, you can choose which application to use to open it on your computer. The printer downloads
this application list from your computer when scanning for the first time. If you do not see the application you want
on the list, or if you install new applications on your computer, then update the application list in the printer.
Updating the application list
1From the printer control panel, press .
2Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Computer or Network.
3Select a local or network computer to receive the scan and then press .
Wait until the printer has finished downloading a list of the scan applications available on the selected computer.
4Select REFRESH from the list of scan applications.
This updates the application list in the printer.
Canceling scan jobs
Press  on the printer control panel, or click Cancel on the computer screen.

Installing the printer on a wireless network
Wireless network compatibility
Your printer contains an IEEE 802.11n wireless print server. Your printer is compatible with IEEE 802.11 b/g/n routers
that are Wi-Fi certified.
Supported network security options
The printer supports three wireless security options: no security, WEP, and WPA/WPA2.
No Security
It is not recommended to use no security at all on a home wireless network. Using no security means that anyone within
range of your wireless network can use your network resources—including Internet access, if your wireless network is
connected to the Internet. The range of your wireless network may extend far beyond the walls of your home, allowing
access to your network from the street or from your neighbors’ homes.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the most basic and the weakest type of wireless security. WEP security relies on a
series of characters called the WEP key.
Every device on the wireless network must use the same WEP key. WEP security can be used on both ad hoc and
infrastructure networks.
A valid WEP key has:
Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9
or
Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols found on a
keyboard.
WPA/WPA2
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) offer stronger wireless network security than WEP.
WPA and WPA2 are similar types of security. WPA2 uses a more complex encryption method and is more secure than
WPA. Both WPA and WPA2 use a series of characters, called the WPA pre-shared key or passphrase, to protect wireless
networks from unauthorized access.
A valid WPA passphrase has:
From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.

							Every device on the wireless network must use the same WPA passphrase. WPA security is an option only on
infrastructure networks with wireless access points and network cards that support WPA. Most newer wireless network
equipment also offers WPA2 security as an option.
Note: If your network uses WPA or WPA2 security, then select WPA Personal when you are prompted to select the
type of security your network uses.
Printing a network setup page
A network setup page lists the configuration settings of the printer, including the IP address and MAC address of the
printer.
1Load plain paper.
2From the printer control panel, press .
3Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Network Setup, and then press .
4Press  to select Print Setup Page.
The network setup page prints.
Information you will need to set up the printer on a wireless network
To set up the printer for wireless printing, you need to know:
The name of your wireless network. This is also known as the Service Set Identifier (SSID).
If encryption was used to secure your network.
The security key (either a WEP key or WPA passphrase) that allows other devices to communicate on the network
if encryption was used to secure your network.
You can locate your network WEP key or WPA passphrase by accessing your wireless access point or router and
checking the security information.
If your wireless access point (wireless router) is using Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security, the WEP key should be:
Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols found on a
keyboard.
If your wireless access point is using Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security, the WPA passphrase should be:
From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A-F, a-f, and 0-9.
If your wireless network is not using security, then you will not have a security key.
Note: If you do not know the SSID of the network that your computer is connected to, launch the wireless utility of the
computer network adapter and look for the network name. If you cannot find the SSID or the security information for
your network, see the documentation that came with the wireless access point, or contact your system support person.
