Read this guide before setting up the wireless LAN

This guide describes the wireless LAN set up procedure, and problems encountered during the conguration. After you nish reading this guide, store it in a safe place for future reference. See the “Getting Started” for machine installation and settings for connection methods other than the wireless LAN.

Prepare for Wireless LAN Connection

Step 1

Check the Following First.

1 Is the computer connected to the wireless

router properly?

For more information, see the instruction manual for the network device you are using, or contact the networking device manufacturer.

2 Have the network settings on the computer

been completed?

If the computer is not properly congured, you may not use the wireless LAN connection even after completing the following settings.

NOTE

• You cannot connect both a wired LAN and wireless

LAN at the same time. In addition, the machine is set to the “Wired LAN” by default.

• When you connect to a network environment that is

not security protected, your personal information may be disclosed to third parties. Please use caution.

Internet Wireless Router

• If you connect through a LAN in the oce, contact

your network administrator.

• In this manual, a wireless device that is accessed

from satellite terminals is generally called as “wireless router.” The term “access point” means a master terminal on a wireless LAN that satellite terminals access to.

When proceeding from “Connecting the Power Cord” in the Getting Started

Proceed to “Check Your Wireless Router.” on P. 3.

Step 2

Switch the Connection Method to Wireless LAN.

Press [▲] or [▼] to

highlight an option.

Prepare for Wireless LAN Connection

Step 3

Select the method to set up the wireless LAN from the following two methods, depending on the wireless router that you are using.

Check Your Wireless Router.

There is a button. P. 4 (Push Button Mode)

This machine supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). You can easily set up if your wireless router has a button, and if the following mark is on the wireless router.

If you are not sure whether your wireless router supports WPS, please see the manual included in the product, or contact the product manufacturer.

There is no button. P. 6 (Manual Selection)

If there is no button on your wireless router, you may manually select the SSID and complete the settings. In this case, you need to specify the SSID and network key of your wireless router. See “Check the SSID (Network Name/Access Point Name) and Network Key” (P.6) to learn how to nd out your SSID and network key.

When proceeding from “Connecting the Power Cord” in the Getting Started

Proceed to step 4 on P. 4.

To set up connection by using WPS PIN code mode or manually entering the setup information:
