Connecting the printer to a wireless network using Wi‑Fi Protected Setup

Before connecting the printer to a wireless network, make sure that:

  • The access point (wireless router) is Wi‑Fi Protected Setup (WPS) certified or WPS‑compatible. For more information, see the documentation that came with your access point.
  • A wireless network adapter is installed on your printer and is working properly. For more information, see the instruction sheet that came with the adapter.

    Using the Push Button Configuration Method

  1. From the control panel, navigate to:

     > Settings >  > Networks/Ports >  > Network [x] >  > Network [x] Setup >  > Wireless >  > Wireless Connection Setup >  > Wi‑Fi Protected Setup >  > Start Push Button Method > 

  2. Follow the instructions on the printer display.

    Using the Personal Identification Number (PIN) Method

  1. From the control panel, navigate to:

     > Settings >  > Networks/Ports >  > Network [x] >  > Network [x] Setup >  > Wireless >  > Wireless Connection Setup >  > Wi‑Fi Protected Setup >  > Start PIN Method > 

  2. Copy the eight‑digit WPS PIN.

  3. Open a Web browser, and then type the IP address of your access point in the address field.

    Notes:

    • The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 123.123.123.123.
    • If you are accessing a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to load the Web page correctly.
