Getting started

Understanding your network type

Typically, you can only have one connection between your
computer and the machine at a time.

Wireless network name and network key

Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is
first set up, a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a
Network Key are created for the network. Locate this information
before proceeding with the machine installation.

Choosing the installation type

You can install a wireless network from the machine’s control panel
or the computer.

From the control panel

You can configure wireless parameters with the control panel (see
"Using the menu button" on page 32).

From the computer

From the computer, we recommend using a USB cable with the
program provided in the supplied software CD (see "Setup using
Windows" on page 34).

Infrastructure mode

This is an environment generally used for homes and
SOHOs (Small Office/ Home Office). This mode uses
an access point to communicate with the wireless
machine.

Ad hoc mode

This mode does not use an access point. The wireless
computer and wireless machine communicates
directly.
