For Wireless Network Users

IMPORTANT

Note

For Wireless Network Interface Users

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 printer driver. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.

• If you are going to connect the printer to your network, we recommend that you contact your system administrator prior to installation. You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation.

• 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.

1. Press the + or - to choose Network.

Press OK.

2. Press the + or - to choose Factory Reset.

Press OK.

3. Press OK again.

• 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 HL-3075CW can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one of the

connection methods can be used at a time.

To setup your machine in any other wireless environment, you can find instructions in the Network User's Guide.

Configuration using the Installation CD-ROM and temporarily using a USB cable

It is recommended that you use a PC wirelessly connected to your network for this method.

• You need to temporarily use a USB cable during configuration (cable not included).

• If you are using Macintosh, Windows access point/router by network cable, you need to know your wireless settings. Please write down your wireless network settings in the area below.

Item Record the current wireless network settings

SSID (Network Name)

Network Key (Security Key/Encryption Key)

*The Network Key may also be described as the Password, Security Key or Encryption Key.

Please do not contact Brother Customer Service for assistance without the wireless security information. We cannot assist you in locating your network security settings.

• If you do not know this information (SSID and Network Key), you cannot continue the wireless setup.

• How can I find this information (SSID and Network Key)?

1. You should see the documentation provided with your wireless access point/router.

2. The initial network name could be the manufacturer’s name or the model name.
