If the LCD shows Connected, the machine has successfully connected to your router or access point.

You can now use your machine in a wireless network.

If the LCD shows Incorrect Mode, session overlap is detected. The machine has detected more than

one router or access point on your network with the Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or AOSS™ mode
enabled. Make sure that only one router or access point has the Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or the
AOSS™ mode enabled and try starting from c again.

If the LCD shows Connection NG (or Connection error), the machine has not successfully

connected to your router or access point. Try starting from c again. If the same message is indicated
again, reset the machine back to the default factory settings and try again. For resetting, see Restoring
the network settings to factory default
on page 87
.

If Connection NG (or Connection error) is shown after Setting WLAN, this may be due to a

session overlap detection error. The machine has detected more than one router or access point on your
network with the SecureEasySetup™ mode, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or AOSS™ mode enabled.
Make sure that only one router or access point has the SecureEasySetup™ mode,
Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or AOSS™ mode enabled and try starting from c again.
