provides the following management options:
• Select either Wizard Mode or Advanced Mode as the default startup mode for the Utility.
• Select the Do not verify the print server can join the network check box to bypass the
wireless communication verification process. The verification process can take up to 120

available to either the printer or the configuring computer, or you simply do not want to verify
wireless communication with the printer, select this check box, and go to step 1.
1 Select the wireless mode that the network uses (Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc mode).
2 Enter the Network Name (SSID) of the network for which the printer will be used.
Note: The SSID must be entered exactly as it is used on the network. SSID’s are
case-sensitive, so if the SSID is entered incorrectly, the print server will not be able
to communicate on the network, and the configuration process must be repeated.
3 Select the appropriate channel for the network.
4 Select the appropriate authentication type for the network. The authentication type options
are dependent on the wireless mode that was selected in step 1, and will determine the types
of encryption that will be available.
For Infrastructure mode:
• Open
• Shared
• WPA Personal
• 802.1x–RADIUS
For Ad-Hoc mode:
