WI-FI CONNECTIVITY GUIDE 1

OVERVIEW

This guide describes the Wi-Fi capabilities of the photo wireless and wifi multifunction printer models. These models feature an internal interface board for wireless connection to a computer. This interface, compliant with the IEEE 802.11b/g standard, transmits and receives information to/from the printer using radio waves. Initial installation and any printer configuration are performed using the USB cable which can then be removed so that the printer can be used on the Wi-Fi (wireless) network. After initial installation, the printer can be used from other computers in the Wi-Fi mode.
note: The printer is compatible with devices that comply with the 802.11 b/g standard. note: It is suggested to carry out installation in the Windows 2000 Service Pack 4, Windows XP Service
Pack 2, or Macintosh OS X 10.2 or higher environments.
