If the IP address assignment method is Static, check if Static is shown in the window. However, if it shows DHCP, click Change TCP/IP to enter the IP address and other network configuration values for the printer. Before entering the IP address for the printer, you must know the computerís network configuration information. If the wireless computer is set to DHCP, you must contact the network administrator to get the static IP address.
Example)
If computer’s network information is as below:
IP address: 169.254.133.42
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Printer’s network information should be as below:
IP address: 169.254.133. 43 (Use computer’s IP address, with changed last three digits.)
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0 (Use the computer’s subnet mask.)
Gateway: 169.254.133.1 (Change the last three digits from IP address of your printer to 1.)
10.The wireless network is connecting according to the network configuration.
11.When the wireless network setting is completed, disconnect the USB cable between the computer and machine.
12.Select the components to be installed.
After selecting the components, you can also change the printer name, set the printer to be shared on the network, set the printer as the default printer, and change the port name of each printer. Click Next.
13.After the installation is finished, a window appears asking you to print a test page and to register yourself as a user of Samsung Printers in order to receive information from Samsung. If you desire, select the corresponding checkbox(es) and click Finish.
Installing the printer on a wireless network with an Access Point
Preparing items
Ensure you have next items ready.
•Access point
•Networked computer
•Printer Software
•Wireless network printer (your machine)
•USB cable
Creating the infrastructure network in Windows
When items are ready, follow the next procedure:
1.Connect the USB cable provided with your machine.
2.Turn on your computer, access point and printer.
3.Put the provided Printer Software
4.The
5.Select Wireless Setup and click Next.
6.The software searches the wireless network devices.
If the searching has failed, you may check if the USB cable is connected between the computer and printer properly, and follow the instruction on the window.
7.After searching, the window shows the wireless network devices. Select the name (SSID) of access point you are using and click Next.
When you set the wireless configuration manually, click Advanced Setting.
•Network Name: Type the SSID of wireless computer, the SSID is
•Operation Mode: Select Infrastructure.
•Authentication: Select an authentication type.
Open System: Authentication is not used, and encryption may or may not be used, depending on the need for data security.
Shared Key: Authentication is used. A device that has a proper WEP key which can access the network.
WPA Personal or WPA2 Personal: Select this option to authenticate the print server based on WPA
•Encryption: Select the encryption. (None, WEP64, WEP128, TKIP, AES, TKIP AES)
•Network Key: Enter the encryption network key value.
•Confirm Network Key: Confirm the encryption network key value.
•WEP Key Index: It is enabled when WEP is set for Encryption after selecting Open System or Shared Key. Enter the WEP key.
After setting in Advanced Setting, go to the step 9.
8.The wireless network security window appears. The window may differ according to its security mode, WEP or WPA.
•In case of WEP
Select Open System or Shared Key for the authentication and enter WEP security key. Click Next.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a security protocol preventing unauthorized access to your wireless network. WEP encrypts the data portion of each packet exchanged on a wireless network using a
•In case of WPA
Enter the WPA shared key and click Next.
WPA authorizes and identifies users based on a secret key that changes automatically at regular intervals. WPA also uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) for data encryption.
The wireless network security window does not appear when the access point has no security setting.
9.The window shows the wireless network setting and check if settings are right. Click Next.
•For the DHCP method
If the IP address assignment method is DHCP, check if DHCP is shown in the window. However, if it shows Static, click Change TCP/ IP to change the assignment method to DHCP.
•For the Static method
If the IP address assignment method is Static, check if Static is shown in the window. However, if it shows DHCP, click Change TCP/IP to enter the IP address and other network configuration values for the printer. Before entering the IP address for the printer, you must know the computerís network configuration information.
