The components included in the box may differ depending on your country.

We recommend that you save the original packaging.

If for any reason you must ship your machine, carefully repack the machine in the original packaging to avoid any damage during transit. The machine should be adequately insured with the carrier. How to repack the machine, see Shipment of the machine in the User's Guide.

Illustrations in this Quick Setup Guide are based on the HL-4570CDW.

The interface cable is not a standard accessory. Buy the appropriate interface cable for the interface you want to use (USB or Network).

USB cable

It is recommended to use a USB 2.0 cable (Type A/B) that is no longer than 2 meters (6 feet).

Network cable

Use a straight-through Category5 (or greater) twisted-pair cable for 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet Network.

7 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.

IMPORTANT

If you are going to connect the machine 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 print server back to its factory default settings.

1.On your machine, press + or - to choose Network, and press OK.

2.Press + or - to choose Network Reset, and press OK.

3.Press + to choose Reset. When Reboot OK? appears, press + to choose Yes.

Note

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-4570CDW(T) can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one of the connection methods can be used at a time.

The following instructions will offer two methods for installing your Brother machine in a wireless network environment.

Note

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

a If your WLAN access point/router supports automatic wireless mode (Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™)

Now go to

page 18

b If your WLAN access point/router does not support Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™, write down the wireless network settings of your WLAN access point/router.

IMPORTANT

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

Network name (SSID/ESSID)

For example:

 

 

 

Network name (SSID/ESSID)

Network Key

Note

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

How can I find this information (Network Name (SSID/ESSID) and Network Key)

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

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

3.If you do not know the security information, please consult the router manufacturer, your system administrator or internet provider.

a Confirm your WLAN access point/router has the Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™ symbol as shown below.

b Place the Brother machine within range of your Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™ access point/router. The range may differ depending on your environment. Refer to the instructions provided with your access point/router.

c On your machine, press + or - to choose Network and press OK.

Press + or - to choose WLAN and press OK. Press + or - to choose WPS/AOSS and press

OK.

When WLAN Enable? is displayed, press + to accept. This will start the wireless setup wizard.

Otherwise press Cancel to exit from the wireless setup wizard.

When Press Key on rtr appears, press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™ button on your WLAN access point/router. See the user’s guide for your WLAN access point/router for instructions. And then press +.

This feature will automatically detect which mode (Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™) your access point/router uses to configure your machine.

Note

If your WLAN access point/router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (PIN Method) and you want to configure your machine using the PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method, see Using the PIN Method of Wi-Fi Protected Setup in the Network User's Guide.

d A connection result message appears on the LCD and a WLAN report will automatically be printed.

If the connection failed, check the error code on the printed report and refer to

Troubleshooting on page 20.

Wireless setup is now complete. A four level indicator at the right of your machine’s LCD will show the wireless signal strength of your access point/router.

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

If your WLAN access point/router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup, WPS is available appears. Press +. To connect your machine using the automatic wireless mode, press + to choose Yes. (If you choose No, go to c to enter the Network Key.) When Press WPS on rtr appears, press the Wi-Fi Protected Setup button on your WLAN access point/router, and then press + twice. Go to e.

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 you use your machine in an IEEE 802.1x supported wireless network, see Using IEEE 802.1x authentication in the Network User's Guide.

If your access point is set to not broadcast the SSID you will have to manually add the SSID name. For details, see Configuring your machine when the SSID is not broadcast in the Network User's Guide.

c Enter the Network Key you wrote down in step 8 on page 17.

To enter a letter or number, hold down or repeatedly press the + or - key until the letter you want appears, and then press OK.

To delete the letters you have entered, press the Back key.

For more information, see Entering Text for Wireless Settings on page 22.

Press OK when you have entered all the characters, then press OK for 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.
