Configuring the printer wirelessly using WPS (Wi-Fi ProtectedSetup)

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a method of configuring computers an d printers on a secure wireless net work. WPS is

faster than manual configuration, and it reduces typing errors when new devices are added to a wireless network.

The SSID and WPA passphrase are automatically detected and configured for you. The printer supports WPS and can

be configured for wireless access using WPS. In order to use WPS to configure the printer, the wireless router must

also support WPS.

If you want to use WPS to set up your printer, then insert the CD and follow the instructions on the computer screen.

•To use WPS to configure the printer wirelessly, all of the devices on your wireless network must support WPS. If

any device on your network does no t support WPS, th en you must type the SSID and sec urity informati on when

prompted.

•If you are using the PIN method to add your printer using WPS, make sure you type all eight digits when you are

asked to enter your PIN.
