For Wireless Network Interface Users

Before you begin

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

Note

• To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother printer 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 or parallel for a faster data transfer, or USB for the fastest throughput speed.

• Although the Brother HL-5370DW can be used in a both 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 printer 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 your setup method from the next page and follow the instructions. To set up your printer in any other wireless environment (e.g. Ad-hoc mode) 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. 2 (Macintosh user only) Double-click the HL5300 icon on your desktop. Double-click the Start Here icon. 3 Choose your printer model and the language. The CD-ROM main menu will appear. 4 Click the Documentation, and then click HTML documents.

IMPORTANT

• 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 are using Windows

temporarily disable them. Once you are sure that you can print, configure the software settings following the instructions again.

• If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the printer, you must reset the print server

back to its factory default settings (see page 43).

You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation.

Make sure you take notes on all the current settings such as SSID, authentication and encryption of your wireless network environment. If you do not know them, contact your network administrator or the manufacture of your access point/router.

Item Example Record the current wireless network settings

1

WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access points using TKIP or AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP or AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.

2

The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.

For example:

64-bit ASCII: Uses 5 text characters e.g. “Hello” (this is case sensitive) 64-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data e.g. “71f2234aba” 128-bit ASCII: Uses 13 text characters e.g.

“Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive)

128-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data e.g.

“71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba”

You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation.

Make sure you take notes on all the current settings such as SSID, authentication and encryption of your wireless network environment. If you do not know them, contact your network administrator or the manufacture of your access point/router.

WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access points using TKIP or AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP or AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.

2

The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.

For example:

64-bit ASCII: Uses 5 text characters e.g. “Hello” (this is case sensitive) 64-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data e.g. “71f2234aba” 128-bit ASCII: Uses 13 text characters e.g.

“Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive)

128-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data e.g.

“71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba”

Safety precautions

To use the printer safely

If you DO NOT follow these safety instructions, there is a possibility of a fire, electrical shock, burn or suffocation. Please keep these instructions for later reference and read them before attempting any maintenance.

WARNING

There are high voltage electrodes inside the printer. Before you clean the inside of the printer, make sure that you have turned off the power switch and unplugged the printer from the AC power outlet.

DO NOT handle the plug with wet hands. Doing this might cause an electrical shock.

Always make sure the plug is fully inserted.

Plastic bags are used in the packaging. To avoid danger of suffocation, keep these bags away from babies and children.

DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of spray or any organic solvent/liquids containing alcohol or ammonia to clean the inside or outside of the printer. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical shock. Refer to Chapter 6 of the User's Guide for how to clean the printer.

DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner to clean up scattered toner. Doing this might cause the toner dust to ignite inside the vacuum cleaner, potentially starting a fire. Carefully clean the toner dust with a dry, lint-free cloth and dispose of it according to local regulations.

44

Cleaning the outside of the printer:

•Make sure that you have unplugged the printer from the AC power outlet.

•Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine will damage the outside surface of the printer.

•DO NOT use cleaning materials that contain ammonia.

Other Information

CAUTION

Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a quality surge protection device on the AC power outlet, or unplug the cords during a lightning storm.

After you have just used the printer, some internal parts of the printer will be extremely hot. When you open the front or back cover (back output tray) of the printer, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustration.
