Networking FAQ

What is Wi-Fi Protected Setup?

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a simple and secure configuration that allows you to establish a wireless home network and enable network security without requiring prior knowledge of Wi-Fi technology. It is no longer necessary to configure the network name (SSID) and WEP key or WPA passphrase for network devices.

Note: WPS only supports networks that communicate through wireless access points (wireless routers).

The printer supports the following methods in connecting to a wireless network:

Personal Identification Number (PIN)—A PIN on the printer is entered into the wireless settings of the wireless access point.

Push Button Configuration (PBC)—Buttons on both the printer and the wireless access point are pushed within a given period of time.

Look for any of these identifier marks to check if your wireless access point is WPS certified:

You can find these WPS logos on the side, back, or top of your wireless access point.

For more information on accessing the wireless settings and determining the WPS capability of your wireless access point, see the documentation that came with the wireless access point or contact your system support person.

Where do I find my WEP key or WPA passphrase?

To find the WEP key or WPA passphrase for the wireless network, view the security settings on the access point or wireless router. Most access points have a Web page that can be accessed using a Web browser.

You can also check the manual that came with your access point or router. If your access point or router is using the default settings, you can find the information in the manual. If someone else set up your network for you, that person or company may have included the information in the manual.

If you do not know how to access the Web page, or if you do not have administrator access to the wireless access point on your network, and are unable to locate the information in the manual, contact your system support person.

What is an SSID?

A Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name that identifies a wireless network. All devices on the network must know the SSID of the wireless network or they will not be able to communicate with each other. Usually, the wireless network broadcasts the SSID to allow wireless devices in the area to connect to it. Sometimes, the SSID is not broadcast for security reasons.

If the SSID of your wireless network is not broadcast, it cannot be detected automatically and will not show up in the list of available wireless networks. You must enter the network information manually in this situation.

An SSID can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
