You can connect wireless LAN ready devices such as smartphones, cameras, and computers to a wireless

LAN to print images.

Checking Wireless LAN Settings

O

In order to use a wireless LAN in infrastructure mode, you need to connect a wireless parent station

(wireless router, etc.) acting as the access point and a device that transmits images (smartphone, camera,

computer, etc.). Any wireless parent stations such as wireless routers are called "access points" in this

guide.

O

Some cameras can be used as an access point. Refer to the user guide supplied with your camera.

O

Select wireless LAN standards compliant devices listed on

p. 52

for your access point. Refer to the user

guide supplied with your access point for information on how to check.

O

Check if your wireless LAN is WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) compatible. If you are not sure whether or not

it is WPS compatible, also check the following items.

- Network name (SSID/ESSID)

- Network authentication/data encryption (encryption method/encryption mode)*

- Encryption key (network key)

* Supported security settings are [No security], [WEP (open system authentication) (64-bit)], [WEP (open system

authentication) (128-bit)], [WPA-PSK (TKIP)], [WPA-PSK (AES)], [WPA2-PSK (TKIP)], and [WPA2-PSK (AES)].

O

If your network is managed by the system administrator, request details of network settings from

the administrator.

Connecting the Printer to the Wireless LAN

You can connect the printer to the wireless LAN and print from your smartphone, camera, or computer via the

access point.

This section describes how to connect a printer to a wireless LAN using a camera as the access point;

however, the same procedure applies when you are printing from a smartphone or computer.

O

Configure a camera as the access point. Refer to the

user guide supplied with your camera.

If you are using an access point other than a camera,
