You can use the Wi-Fi Setup Wizard on the printer to connect to your wireless
network. Use the procedure that is appropriate for your network setup.
Connecting to a non-WPS wireless router
To connect to your wireless network, you need to know the network name, also
called the Service Set Identifier (SSID). You can obtain your network name from the
wireless router. See the manufacturer's documentation for more information.
If you have enabled security on your network, you also need to know the security
string, which may be a Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or a Wi-Fi Protected Access
(WPA/WPA 2) passphrase.
Record your network information using the correct uppercase and lowercase letters.

Scanning
Scanning digitizes documents and pictures, and sends the digital files to your
computer, memory card, email, network folder, or USB flash drive.
To scan to a computer, the Home Center Software must be installed on that
computer, unless you are using the Online Printer Management Tool. (See Scanning
from the Online Printer Management Tool, page 85.)
When you scan, the digital file can:
• open in Home Center Software (when Home Center Software is loaded and the
printer is connected to a computer with WINDOWS OS).
• open in a third-party scanner software.
• be saved in a format and location that you determine (see Changing the scan
settings for scanning from the control panel, page 73).
Scanning from a software program on the computer (such as Home Center
Software) gives you more options, but you can also scan from the printer control
panel.
Before you begin scanning
If you are scanning to a computer, make sure that the printer is connected to a
computer using a USB cable or wireless network (see Networking Your Printer,

If you want to scan to an email address or to a shared network folder, you need to:
• make sure the printer is connected to a computer using a wireless or Ethernet
connection.
• set up a profile using the Online Printer Management Tool (see Setting up Scan
To E m ail , p a g e 2 7 and Setting up Scan To Network Folder, page 33).
Changing the scan settings for scanning from the control panel
If you want to adjust settings that the printer uses, do so before you scan from the

connect your printer accordingly.
IMPORTANT: Use the phone cord that was provided with the printer. If you use any other
phone cord, you may not be able to send or receive faxes successfully.

wiring to transmit only phone signals
• Cable telephone service — telephone service that is delivered by a cable

Determining whether your phone line is dedicated or shared
Phone with
Configuration for connecting an answering
machine with a standard telephone service
answering machine
To connect your printer for faxing correctly, you need to determine whether your
phone line is shared or dedicated.
•A dedicated phone line is one that has only this printer and no other devices
connected to it. If you have a dedicated line, connect your printer as described
for your type of phone service (see Connecting to a standard telephone service,
page 87, Connecting to a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), page 87, or Connecting
to an Internet or cable telephone service (Voice-Over-Internet Protocol or
VOIP), page 88).
•A shared phone line is one that has several devices connected to it, such as a
phone and/or answering machine as well as the printer. If you have a shared line,
connect your printer in one of the following ways, based on the devices you have
connected to the same phone line.
If you share the line with an answering machine or telephone:
1. Connect one end of the phone cord that came with the printer into the LINE IN
phone port on the back of the printer.
2. Connect the other end of the phone cord into either a wall phone jack or a DSL
filter, depending on the type of telephone service you use.
3. Connect one end of the phone cord for your answering machine into the EXT
OUT phone port on the back of the printer.
4. Connect the other end of the phone cord into the answering machine or
telephone.
NOTE: If you have an answering machine, set the number of rings to answer on
the printer to a higher number than the rings to answer for the answering
machine (see Rings to Answer in the table under Selecting fax settings,
page 91).

If you have an answering service:
If you have an answering service that uses a computerized system for recording
messages remotely for the same phone line that you use for your all-in-one
printer, then you can set up a distinctive ring to receive faxes automatically (see
Distinctive Ring in the table under Selecting fax settings, page 91).
If you do not set up a distinctive ring, you can still receive faxes manually (see
Receiving a fax manually, page 100).
Entering fax sender information
Fax sender information appears in the header of any fax that you send from your
all-in-one printer. Typically this is your name or your business name and your fax
number.
NOTE: If you do not enter fax sender information, the header on faxes that you send
will be blank.
