Warning: Wireless print servers are easily damaged by static electricity. Touch something metal such as the

Check your security keys
A security key is like a password. All devices on the same network share the same security key.
Note: Make sure you copy down the security key exactly, including any capital letters, and store it in a safe place
for future reference.
The security key must follow the following criteria.
WEP key
• Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F and 0–9.
• Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.
WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK key
• Up to 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F and 0–9.
• Between 8 and 64 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.
Printer is configured correctly, but cannot be found on the network
Make sure:
• The printer has power and the light is on.
• The printer is within range of the wireless network.
• The printer is located away from other electronic devices that may interfere with the wireless signal.
• Your wireless network is using a unique network name (SSID). If not, it is possible that the printer/print server
is communicating over a different, nearby network that uses the same network name.
• The printer has a valid IP address on the network.
