A B C D F I K L M O P R S T U W A Access Point A wireless transceiver or base station that receives information from wireless clients/the machine and rebroadcasts it. Required in an infrastructure network.
About Technical Terms The printer automatically changes its authentication method to match the access point. Open System In this authentication method, the communication partner is authenticated without using WEP key even if Use WEP is selected. Shared Key In this authentication method, the communication partner is authenticated using the WEP key that was set for encryption. B Bonjour A service built into Mac OS X operating system to detect the connectable devices on a network automatically.
About Technical Terms Compatible with 802.11b and 802.11g. Infrastructure Client computer and machine setup where all wireless communications pass through an access point. IP Address A unique number with four parts separated by dots. Every network device that is connected to the Internet has an IP address. Example: 192.168.0.1 An IP address is usually assigned by an access point or a DHCP server of the router automatically.
About Technical Terms Machine . O Operation Status Indicates the status on whether the printer can be used. P PSK An encryption method employed by WPA/WPA2. R Router A relay device to connect to another network. S Signal Strength The strength of the signal received by the printer from the access point is indicated with a value from 0 to 100%.
