For Wireless Network Users

For wireless network interface users (DCP-373CW/375CW/377CW only)

Before you begin

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your network access point/router. After the machine is configured to communicate with your access point/router, computers on your network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install the drivers and software. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.

To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the network access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer or USB for the fastest throughput speed.

Although the Brother DCP-373CW/375CW/377CW can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one of the connection methods can be used at a time.

IMPORTANT

If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine you must reset the network (LAN) settings before you can configure the wireless settings again. On your machine, press Menu. Press a or b to choose 3.Network and press OK. Press a or b to choose 0.Network Reset, and then press OK. Press a twice to choose Reset and Yes.

The following instructions are for infrastructure mode (connected to a computer through an access point/router).

Infrastructure Mode

a Access point/router b Wireless Network machine (your machine) c Wireless capable computer connected to the access point/router d Wired computer connected to the access point/router

Please make sure the wireless network settings of the machine match the access point/router.

Note

To set up your machine in Ad-hoc mode (connected to a wireless capable computer without an access point/router) you can find instructions in the Network User's Guide on the CD-ROM.

You can view the Network User’s Guide by following the instructions below. 1 Turn on your computer. Insert the Brother CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. For Windows 2 Choose your model and the language. The CD-ROM top menu will appear. 3 Click Documentation, and then click HTML documents. For Macintosh: 2 Double-click Documentation, and then double-click your language folder. 3 Double-click top.html.

Page 23

For Wireless Network Users

Confirm your network environment (Infrastructure Mode)

The following instructions will offer two methods for installing your Brother machine in a wireless network environment. Both methods are for infrastructure mode, using a wireless access point/router that uses DHCP to assign IP addresses. Choose a configuration method and proceed to the page indicated.

a If your wireless access point/router does not support SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup

or AOSS™, write down the wireless network settings of your wireless access point/router in the area below.

IMPORTANT

If you do not know this information (Network Name (SSID/ESSID), and Password), you cannot continue the wireless setup. You should see the documentation provided with your wireless access point/router, consult the router manufacturer, or your system administrator.

Item

Network Name: (SSID/ESSID)

Password

Your Brother machine supports the use of the first WEP KEY only. If you are using a router that is using more than one WEP KEY enter the KEY used for the first WEP KEY.

Now go to

For Wireless Network Users

The letters appear in this order: lower case,

Configure the wireless settings (typical Wireless Setup in infrastructure mode)

upper case, numbers and then special letters. (For more information, see Entering Text for

Wireless Settings (DCP-373CW/375CW/377CW only)

on page 37.)

a On your machine, press Menu.

Press a or b to choose 3.Network and press OK. Press a or b to choose 2.WLAN and press OK. Press a or b to choose 2.Setup Wizard and press OK.

When Change to WLAN? is displayed, press a to accept. This will start the wireless setup wizard. To cancel, press Stop/Exit.

b The machine will search for available SSIDs. If

a list of SSIDs is displayed, use the a or b keys to choose the SSID you wrote down in step 11-a on page 23, then press OK. If you are using an authentication and encryption method that requires a password, go to c.

If your authentication method is Open System and your encryption mode is None, go to d.

Note

It will take several seconds to display a list of available SSIDs.

If a list of SSIDs is not displayed, make sure your access point is on. Move your machine closer to the access point and try starting from a again.

If your access point is set to not broadcast the SSID you will have to manually add the SSID name. For details, see the Network User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

c Enter the Password you wrote down in

step 11-a on page 23 using the a, b keys to choose each letter or number.

Use Enlarge/Reduce key or Number of Copies key to move the cursor left or right.

Press OK when you have entered all the characters, then press a Yes to apply your settings. Go to d.

d Your machine will now try to connect to your

wireless network using the information you have entered. If successful, Connected will appear for 60 seconds on the LCD.

It may take a few minutes to connect to your wireless network.

Note

If the LCD displays Wrong Password, the password you entered did not match with your access point. Verify your network settings collected in step 11-a on page 23, then repeat a to c to make sure you have entered the correct information.

If the LCD displays Connection Fail, make sure your access point is on, and verify your network settings collected in step 11-a on page 23. Temporarily move your machine as close as possible to the access point, then repeat a to c to make sure you have entered the correct information.

If your access point does not have DHCP enabled you will need to manually configure the IP address, subnet mask and gateway of the machine to suit your network. See Chapter 6 of the Network User’s Guide for details.

e Press OK.

Wireless setup is now complete.

To install MFL-Pro Suite, continue to step 13.

For example, to enter the letter a, press the a key once. To enter the number 3, hold down the a key until it appears.
