For Advanced Mode

The Advanced Mode home screen provides additional options for using the Lexmark Wireless Setup Utility. Clicking Wizard Mode will revert the Wireless Setup Utility to Wizard Mode. Clicking Options provides the following management options:

Select either Wizard Mode or Advanced Mode as the default startup mode for the Utility.

Select the Do not verify the print server can join the network check box to bypass the wireless communication verification process. The verification process can take up to 120 seconds. If the print server is being configured for use on a network that is not immediately available to either the printer or the configuring computer, or you simply do not want to verify wireless communication with the printer, select this check box, and go to step 1.

1Select the wireless mode that the network uses (Infrastructure or Ad-Hoc mode).

2Enter the Network Name (SSID) of the network for which the printer will be used.

Note: The SSID must be entered exactly as it is used on the network. SSID’s are case-sensitive, so if the SSID is entered incorrectly, the print server will not be able to communicate on the network, and the configuration process must be repeated.

3Select the appropriate channel for the network.

4Select the appropriate authentication type for the network. The authentication type options are dependent on the wireless mode that was selected in step 1, and will determine the types of encryption that will be available.

For Infrastructure mode:

Open

Shared

WPA Personal

802.1x–RADIUS

For Ad-Hoc mode:
