iOS device. To change the printer settings,
see Setting Up the Printer (With the Default

already been specified, the connection
between the iOS device and the printer must
be re-established.

A list of Wi-Fi networks (SSID) that can
be joined appears.
To establish a connection, tap the
printer’s default network (SSID) so that
a checkmark appears beside the
network (SSID). For the password, type
in the default WEP key (last five digits
of the serial number). It will take time for
the iOS device to search for the SSID
and display it. If it is not displayed, set
Wi-Fi to [Off], then to [On] again.
When printing from an iOS device,
printing software created by a software
developer will be needed in addition to
the product and services that we
provide. (We provide an SDK that can
be used.) Consult with a software
developer for printing software for the
iOS device.
