3Import

Import from the current computer wireless settings Imports the settings from the computer.

Note

Only Personal Security Authentication settings (open system, Shared Key and WPA/WPA2-PSK) can be imported. Enterprise Security Authentication settings (such as LEAP or EAP-FAST), WPA2-PSK TKIP cannot be imported.

If multiple wireless LANs are enabled for the computer used, the first wireless settings (Only Personal Security Authentication settings) detected are considered to be the import data.

Only settings values (SSID, authentication method, encryption method, and authentication key) from the Network Settings - Wireless Settings screen of Applicable Settings can be imported.

Select a Profile to import

Imports settings that were exported as a profile.

Click this option and select a profile by clicking the Browse... button. Your selected settings will be displayed in the settings display/change area.

Note

All settings, such as wireless settings or TCP/IP settings, can be saved. However, node names cannot be imported.

• Only profiles that are compatible with the selected printer can be imported.

C

If the imported profile's IP address is set to STATIC, change the IP address of the imported profile as necessary so that it does not duplicate the IP address of an existing printer on the network.

4Export

Saves the settings in a text file.

Exported files are not encrypted.

Because exported files may contain authentication keys and passwords, take necessary measures to protect exported files by saving exported files to arbitrary locations which other users cannot access.

5Restore to Default Network Settings

Returns network settings to the factory default settings.

6Automatically restart the printer after use.

When this check box is selected, printers automatically restart after network settings are applied. When this check box is cleared, printers must be manually restarted.

Note

When configuring multiple printers, you can reduce the time required to change settings by clearing this check box. Note that in this case we recommend selecting this check box when configuring the first printer so that you can confirm that each setting is operating as intended.
