If Your Macintosh Has an AirPort Wireless
Adapter

Make sure AirPort is enabled in the AppleTalk Control Panel. If your
Macintosh and AirPort Base Station or access point are connected over an
existing Ethernet network, select

Ethernet

in the AppleTalk Control

Panel.

Make sure that both AppleTalk and TCP/IP are enabled in your AirPort
utility.

To use the printer in infrastructure mode, select a working connection to
a base station or access point from the AirPort Networks list.

Note the name of the AirPort Network. If you have a Windows
computer on your wireless network, use this name as your
computer’s SSID (Service Set Identifier). For instructions on
setting the SSID, see the documentation for the wireless adapter
in your Windows computer.

To use the printer in computer-to-computer (ad hoc) mode, create or
join a computer-to-computer network. See your AirPort documentation
for details.

EPSON recommends that you use the print server with an AirPort
Base Station or access point. With AirPort, your print server
works more reliably in infrastructure mode than computer-to-
computer (ad hoc) mode.

If you want your AirPort network to be password protected, you need to
change your password to a hexadecimal value. Follow the instructions
beginning on page 44 to install and configure your software.
