Connecting to a Wireless LAN

3JX3-009

Wireless routers (or access points) connect the machine to a computer via radio waves. If your wireless router is

equipped with Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), configuring your network is automatic and easy. If your networking

devices do not support automatic configuration, or if you want to specify authentication and encryption settings in

detail, you need to manually set up the connection. Make sure that your computer is correctly connected to the

network.

Risk of information leak

Use wireless LAN connection at your own discretion and at your own risk. If the machine is connected to an
unsecured network, your personal information might be leaked to a third party because radio waves used in
wireless communication can go anywhere nearby, even beyond walls.

Wireless LAN security

The wireless LAN function of this machine supports WEP, WPA-PSK, and WPA2-PSK. For the wireless security
compatibility of your wireless router, see the instruction manuals for your networking devices or contact
your manufacturer.

Required devices for wireless LAN connection

The machine does not come with a wireless router. Have the router ready as necessary.

Setting Up Connection Using WPS

When using WPS, two modes are available: push button mode and PIN code mode.

Push Button Mode

Find the WPS mark shown below on the package of your wireless router. Also make sure that there is a WPS button on

your networking device. Setting Up Connection Using WPS Push Button Mode(P. 21)
