Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

If your network uses a WPS-enabled wireless router, you can quickly connect your scanner to the
network using Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS).

Note:

To check if your router is WPS-enabled, look for a button labeled

WPS

on your router. If there is

no hardware button, there may be a WPS setting in the software for the device. Check your network
product documentation for details.
