Network Connection Types

Wi-Fi Connection

Connect the printer and the computer or smart device to the access point. is is the typical connection method
for home or oce networks where computers are connected by Wi-Fi through the access point.

& “Making Wi-Fi Settings from the Control Panel” on page 24

Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) Connection

Use this connection method when you are not using Wi-Fi at home or at the oce, or when you want to connect
the printer and the computer or smart device directly. In this mode, the printer acts as an access point and you can
connect up to four devices to the printer without having to use a standard access point. However, devices directly
connected to the printer cannot communicate with each other through the printer.

Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection is a connection method designed to replace Ad Hoc mode.
e printer can be connected by Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection simultaneously. However, if you
start a network connection in Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection when the printer is connected by Wi-Fi, the
Wi-Fi is temporarily disconnected.

Important:
When you connect from a computer or smart device to the printer using the Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection,
the printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network (SSID) as the computer or smart device and the communication
is established between them. Since the computer or smart device is automatically connected to the other connectable
Wi-Fi network if the printer is turned o, it is not connected to the previous Wi-Fi network again if the printer is
turned on. Connect to the printer's SSID for Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection from the computer or smart
device again. If you do not want to connect every time you turn the printer on or o, we recommend using Wi-Fi
network by connecting the printer to an access point.

Place the printer close to the access point. Remove any obstacles between them.
If you have entered the SSID manually, check if it is correct. Check the SSID from the Network Status part on
the network connection report.
To establish a network using push button setup, check that the access point supports WPS. If it does not
support WPS, you cannot establish a network using push button setup.
Check that only ASCII characters (alphanumeric characters and symbols) are used for the SSID. The printer
cannot display an SSID which contains any characters other than ASCII characters.
Check the SSID and password before connecting to the access point. If you are using an access point with its
default settings, the SSID and password are on the label. If you do not know the SSID and password, contact
the person who set up the access point, or see the documentation provided with the access point.
When you want to connect to an SSID generated using the tethering function on a smart device, check the
SSID and password in the documentation provided with the smart device.
