Using the SecureEasySetup™ software to configure your machine for a
wireless network
The SecureEasySetup™ software allows you to
configure the wireless network easier than
configuring it manually. By pushing a button on the
wireless router or access point, you can complete
setup and secure the wireless network. Your router or
access point must also support SecureEasySetup™.
See the user’s guide for your wireless LAN router or
access point for instructions to configure your
machine for a wireless network. If your wireless router
or access point does not support SecureEasySetup™
go to the next page for installation instructions.
Note
Routers or access points that support
SecureEasySetup™ have the
SecureEasySetup™ symbol as shown below.
