• Operation Mode: ‘Ad-hoc’ mode allows the wireless devices
to communicate directly with each other. This is the default
operating mode for the print server.
If your network uses an Access Point, you must reconfigure
the operation mode to ‘InfraStructure’. ‘InfraStructure’ mode
allows both wireless and cabled computers to send files to the
printer through an Access Point.
If you select ‘Auto’, the print server selects the operation mode
automatically according to the network cable’s connection
each time it boots up. If the network cable is detected, the
print server enters ‘Ad-hoc’ mode; if not, enters
‘InfraStructure’ mode.
• Channel: This option is available in the ‘Ad-hoc’ mode only.
In most cases, you will not need to change this setting. The
print server will scan all available channels for the specified
network and will adapt its channel to the one detected.
Default setting is 10.
• Authentication: ‘Open System’ or ‘Shared Key’. The
Samsung print server is not configured for network
authentication (Open System). If required by your network,
the proper authentication method must be configured on the
print server.
• Encryption: No data Encryption, 64 bits, or 128 bits. Default
setting is No data Encryption. If your network uses WEP
encryption keys, you must configure the encryption keys. You
can configure up to four keys. The active key must match the
value and active key position (for example, Key 1) configured
on other wireless devices.
• Using Key: Select the key to use in your network.
• Key Type: Select the key type of your network.
• Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4: Enter the key number for
“Encryption”. The number you can enter are as follows:
Hexadecimal Alphanumeric
64-bit WEP 10 digits 5 characters
128-bit WEP 26digits 13 characters
