We recommend that you use the Brother installer application on the CD-ROM we have provided with the
printer. By using this application, you can easily connect your printer to your wireless network and install the
network software and printer driver which you need to complete the configuration of your printer for a wireless
network. You will be guided by the on-screen instructions until you are able to use your Brother wireless
network printer. You must know your wireless network settings before you proceed with this installation.

If there is an Ethernet Hub or Router in the same network as the wireless access point (A) of your printer, you
can temporarily connect the Hub or Router to the printer using an Ethernet cable (B), this is an easy way to
configure the printer. You can then remotely configure the printer from a computer on the network.
