e If the LCD shows Connected, the machine has successfully connected to your router or access point. You can now use your machine in a wireless network.

If the LCD shows Setting WLAN, Connecting SES (Connecting WPS or Connecting AOSS), then Connection Failed, the machine has not successfully connected to your router or access point. Try starting from c again. If the same message is indicated again, reset the machine back to the default factory settings and try again. For resetting, see Restore the network settings to factory default on page 49.

If the LCD shows Setting WLAN, then Connection Failed or Incorrect Mode, a session overlap or connection failure was detected.

Make sure that only one router or access point has the SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or AOSS™ mode enabled and try starting from c again.
