Network Security Recommendations

To help deter unauthorized access to your product over a network, you should protect your network
environment using appropriate security measures.

Security measures such as these can help deter threats such as loss of user data, use of telephone and
fax lines, and other intrusions:

• Enable security on your wireless LAN

Enable the appropriate security on the wireless LAN you plan to use with your product. Network
security such as a network password can deter interception of traffic over the wireless LAN. Your
router may already have a default password enabled by your Internet service provider (ISP). See your
ISP and router documentation for instructions on how to change the default password and better
secure your network.

• Connect your product only to a network protected by a firewall

Connecting your product directly to the Internet may leave it vulnerable to security threats. Instead,
connect it to a router or other network connection protected by a firewall. Your router may already
have a firewall set up by your Internet service provider; check with your ISP for confirmation. For best
results, set up and use a private IP address for your network connection.

• Change the default administrator password on your product

If your product has an option to set an administrator password, change the default administrator
password to deter access by unauthorized users to personal data stored on your product, such as IDs,
passwords, and contact lists.

Parent topic: Wi-Fi or Wired Networking

Contact your network administrator for
assistance.

Check the following:

• Make sure your router or access point is turned on, and
is correctly connected to your computer or network
device.

• Turn off the router or access point, wait about 10
seconds, and turn it on again.

• Move your product closer to your router or access point,
and remove any obstacles between them. Also move
your product away from devices such as wireless
phones or microwaves.

• Confirm that the SSID shown on the network
connection report matches the label on your router or
access point. Also make sure your SSID uses only
ASCII characters and symbols, or your product cannot
display the SSID correctly.

• If you are trying to connect using the WPS push button
method, make sure your router or access point supports
it.

• If you are using a network password, check the label on
your router or access point to confirm that you are using
the correct password, or check with your network
administrator or router/access point documentation.

• If you are connecting to a smart device that generates
an SSID, check the device documentation for the SSID
and password you should use.

Error code and message Solution

E5

Security mode (e.g. WEP, WPA) does not
match the current setting of the printer.
Confirm security mode. Contact your
network administrator for assistance.

E6

MAC address of your printer may be
filtered. Check whether your router/access
point has restrictions such as MAC address
filtering. See the documentation of the
router/access point or contact your network
administrator for assistance.

If the security on your router or access point is not one of
the following types, change the type of security on your
router or access point and reset your product's network
settings.

• WEP-64 bit (40 bit)

• WEP-128 bit (104 bit)

• WPA PSK (TKIP/AES); also known as WPA Personal

• WPA2 PSK (TKIP/AES); also known as WPA2 Personal

• WPA (TKIP/AES)

• WPA2 (TKIP/AES)

Also make sure you are connecting to the 2.4GHz band
on your network and using the password for that band.

If your router or access point has MAC address filtering
enabled, register your product's MAC address so it is not
filtered. Locate the MAC address on the network
connection report and check your router or access point
documentation for instructions.

If your router or access point is using shared
authentication with WEP security, confirm that you are
using the correct authentication key and index.

E8

Incorrect IP address is assigned to the
printer. Confirm IP address setup of the
network device (hub, router, or access
point). Contact your network administrator
for assistance.

If your router or access point limits the number of
connected devices, raise the connection limit. See your
router or access point documentation for instructions.

If your product's Obtain IP Address setting is set to Auto,
enable DHCP on your router or access point. If it is set to
Manual, the IP address may be out of range or on a
different network segment; set a valid IP address using
your product control panel or the Web Config utility.

You can also try turning off your product and the router or
access point, waiting about 10 seconds, and turning them
on again.

on again. Download and install your product software
again to reset your network settings.

Make sure other devices on the network are turned on and
do the following:

• If your product's Obtain IP Address setting is set to
Manual, check the IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway addresses on the network connection
report to see if they are correct. If not, correct the
settings.

• If DHCP is enabled, set your product's Obtain IP
Address setting to Auto. If you want to use the DHCP­assigned address as a static address, set the Obtain IP
Address setting to Manual, enter the product's IP
address as listed on the network connection report, and
set the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

If you still cannot connect to your product, turn off your
router or access point, wait about 10 seconds, and turn it
on again.

E11

Setup is incomplete. Confirm default
gateway setup. Connection using the
EpsonNet Setup is available. Contact your

gateway addresses are correct, if you are entering them
manually.

• Confirm that the subnet mask and default gateway
addresses for other devices are the same.

• Make sure the IP address does not conflict with other
devices.

If you still cannot connect to your product, do the
following:

• Turn off your router or access point, wait about 10
seconds, and turn it on again.

• Download and install your product software again to
reset your network settings.

• If your router or access point uses WEP security with
several registered passwords, make sure that the first
registered password is set on your product.

Make sure your router, access point, and/or hub are
turned on. Also make sure the TCP/IP setup on your
router, access point, and/or hub is not set manually; this
may cause your product's network settings to differ from
the manually set up devices.

If you still cannot connect to your product, do the
following:

• Turn off your router or access point, wait about 10
seconds, and turn it on again.

your router or access point, wait about 10 seconds, and
turn it back on again. If you still cannot connect to your
product, check the documentation that came with your
router or access point for solutions.

You can connect up to 4 computers or other devices to
