Wi-Fi indicator light is still orange

When the Wi-Fi indicator light is orange, it may indicate that the printer is:

•Being configured for use on the wireless network

•Not configured in infrastructure mode

•Waiting to be configured for ad hoc mode

The printer may be unable to join the network because of interference, its distance from the wireless access point (wireless router), or until its settings are changed.
