Printing With Wi-Fi Direct
NOTE: The Wi-Fi Direct feature is available on the Dell Cloud Multifunction Printer | H815dw only.
This section provides information for Wi-Fi Direct printing. Wi-Fi Direct allows your Wi-Fi mobile devices such as
computers, smartphones, and tablets, to connect to the printer directly via a Wi-Fi network. With Wi-Fi Direct, you
can print documents, photos, or e-mail on your Wi-Fi mobile devices directly without a wireless access point.
NOTE: Wi-Fi Direct is available even if the printer is connected to your wireless network connection.
NOTE: The maximum number of devices that can be connected via the Wi-Fi Direct network is 3.
NOTE: You cannot connect your mobile device to the Internet via the printer’s Wi-Fi Direct network.
NOTE: Depending on the mobile device, the channel used to connect the device to the printer via Wi-Fi Direct may differ from
the channel used by the printer to connect to a network via Wi-Fi infrastructure mode. In such a case, simultaneous connection
with Wi-Fi Direct and Wi-Fi infrastructure mode may not work properly.
NOTE: The printer connected with Wi-Fi Direct supports the following protocols; LPD, Port9100, Web Services on Devices
(WSD), Bonjour (mDNS), SNMPv1/v2c, Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool.
Setting Up Wi-Fi Direct
To use Wi-Fi Direct, you need to first set up the Wi-Fi Direct settings from the operator panel of the printer. To
connect the mobile device to the printer via Wi-Fi Direct, select the SSID of the printer from the list of wireless
networks on the mobile device and enter the passphrase necessary for connection.
