Use the following instructions to install the internal wireless print server: 1 Turn off your printer, and then unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
You are now ready to configure the internal wireless print server to work on your wireless network. What do the Wi-Fi indicator lights mean? • Off indicates that the printer is not turned on, or a wireless print server is not installed. Select this option: – If you want to connect the printer to the computer using a USB cable. – If the printer does not have a wireless print server installed and you want to connect the printer to the computer using a USB cable.
Networking General networking Networking overview A network is a collection of devices such as computers, printers, Ethernet hubs, wireless access points, and routers connected together for communication through cables or through a wireless connection. A network can be either wired, wireless, or designed to have both wired and wireless devices. Devices on a wired network use cables to communicate with each other. Devices on a wireless network use radio waves instead of cables to communicate with each other.
Scenario 1: Laptop and printer connected wirelessly with Internet • A computer is connected to a wireless router by an Ethernet cable. • A laptop and a printer are connected wirelessly to the router. • The network is connected to the Internet through a DSL or a cable modem. Internet Scenario 2: Computer, laptop, and printer connected wirelessly with Internet • A computer, a laptop, and a printer are connected wirelessly to a wireless router.
Scenario 3: Computer, laptop, and printer connected wirelessly without Internet • A computer, a laptop, and a printer are connected wirelessly to a wireless access point. • The network has no connection to the Internet. Scenario 4: Laptop connected wirelessly to printer without Internet • A laptop is directly connected wirelessly to a printer without going through a wireless router. • The network has no connection to the Internet.
If you purchased the internal wireless print server separately, the MAC address appears on an adhesive label that came with the wireless print server. Attach the adhesive label to your printer so you will be able to find the MAC address when you need it. UAA: XX XX XX XX XX XX Note: A list of MAC addresses can be set on a router so that only devices with matching MAC addresses can be allowed to operate on the network. This is called MAC filtering.
How to locate a computer IP address 1 Do one of the following: • In Windows Vista, click All Programs Accessories Command Prompt. • In Windows XP, click Start Programs or All Programs Accessories Command Prompt. 2 Type ipconfig. 3 Press Enter. The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.0.100. Assigning an IP address An IP address may be assigned by the network using DHCP.
A simple type of wireless network is one where a PC with a wireless adapter communicates directly with a printer equipped for wireless networking. This mode of communication is called ad hoc. A device in this type of network must have a valid IP address and be set to ad hoc mode. The wireless print server must also be configured with the same SSID and channel.
Advanced wireless setup Creating an ad hoc wireless network using Windows The recommended way to set up your wireless network is to use a wireless access point (wireless router). A network set up this way is called an infrastructure network. If you have an infrastructure network in your home, you should configure your printer for use on that network.
7 Select the Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings check box. 8 Under Preferred Networks, delete any existing networks. a Click the network to be removed. b Click the Remove button. 9 Click Add to create an ad hoc network. 10 In the Network Name (SSID) box, type the name you want to give your wireless network. 11 Write down the network name you chose so you can refer to it when running the wireless setup. Make sure you copy it down exactly, including capital letters.
