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
