Creating an ad hoc wireless network

The recommended way to set up your wireless network is to use a wireless access point (wireless router). A network set up this way is called an infrastructure network. If you have an infrastructure network, you should configure the printer for use on that network.

Note: The printer can communicate on only one wireless network at a time. Configuring the printer for an ad hoc wireless network will keep it from working on any other wireless network, either ad hoc or infrastructure.

You can set up an ad hoc network if you:

•Do not have an access point or wireless router

•Do not already have a wireless network (but do have a wireless adapter for your computer)

•Want to set up a standalone network between the printer and a computer with a wireless network adapter
