Wireless network setup

Make sure your machine supports a wireless network. Wireless network may not be available depending on the model.

Getting started

Understanding your network type

Typically, you can only have one connection between your computer and the machine at a time.

Infrastructure mode

This is an environment generally used for homes and SOHOs (Small Office/ Home Office). This mode uses an access point to communicate with the wireless machine.

Ad hoc mode

This mode does not use an access point. The wireless computer and wireless machine communicates directly.

Wireless network name and network key

Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is first set up, a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a Network Key are created for the network. Locate this information before proceeding with the machine installation.

Choosing the installation type

You can install a wireless network from the machine’s control panel or the computer.

From the control panel

You can configure wireless parameters with the control panel.

See "Using the WLAN" on page 32.

From the computer

From the computer, we recommend using a USB cable with the program provided in the supplied software CD.

See "Setup using Windows" on page 32.

With a USB cable: You can simply set up a wireless network using the program on the supplied software CD. Only Windows and

Macintosh operating systems are supported (see "Setup using Windows" on page 32 or "Setup using Macintosh" on page 35).

You can also install a wireless network in Samsung Easy Printer Manager (Device Settings) or Printer Settings Utility with a USB cable after installing the driver (Windows and Macintosh operating systems are supported).

With a network cable: You can set up a wireless network using the SyncThru™ Web Service program (see "Using a network cable" on page 37).

Using the WLAN

Some models may not support this feature.

Before starting, you will need to know the network name (SSID) of your wireless network and the network key if it is encrypted. This information was set when the access point (or wireless router) was installed. If you do not know about your wireless environment, please ask the person who set up your network.

After completing the wireless network connection, you need to install a machine driver to print from an application (see "Installing wired network connected machine’s driver" on page 28).

1.Press the Press on on the control panel.

2.Press Network > Wireless > WLAN Settings.

3.Press the OK to select the setup method you want.

Wizard (recommended): In this mode the setup is automatic. Machine will display a list of available network to choose. After a network is chosen then printer will prompt for the corresponding security Key.

Custom: In this mode users can give their own SSID or edit SSID, choose the security manually and apply the settings.

Setup using Windows

Shortcut to Wireless Setting program without CD: If you have installed the printer driver once, you can access the Wireless Setting program without CD. From the Start menu, select Programs or All Programs > Samsung Printers > your printer driver name > Wireless Setting Program.
