Configuration using the PIN Method of WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)

If your WLAN access point/router supports WPS (PIN Method), you can configure the machine easily. The PIN (Personal Identification Number) Method is one of the connection methods developed by the Wi-Fi

Alliance®. By inputting a PIN which is created by an Enrollee (your machine) to the Registrar (a device that manages the wireless LAN), you can setup the WLAN network and security settings. See the user’s guide 3 supplied with your WLAN access point/router for instructions on how to access the WPS mode.
