Wi-Fi indicator light is still orange
When the Wi-Fi indicator light is orange, it may indicate that the printer is:
•Not configured in infrastructu re mode
•Waiting to make an ad hoc connection to another wireless devic e
•Not connected to a wireless ne twork
The printer may be unable to join the network because of interfe rence, its distance from the wi reless access point
(wireless router), or until its settings are changed.
These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
CHECK NETWORK NAME
Make sure your network d oes not have the sam e name as another network near you. F or example, if you a nd your
neighbor both use a manufacturer's default network name, your printer could be connecting to your neighbor's
network.
If you are not using a unique ne twork name, consult the d ocumentation for your wir eless access point (wirel ess
router) to learn how to set a network name.
If you set a new network name, you must reset the printer and computer SSID to the same network name.
CHECK SECURITY KEYS
If you are using WEP security
A valid WEP key is:
•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal charact ers. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. AS CII characters are letters, nu mbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.
If you are using WPA security
A valid WPA passphrase is:
•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
•Exactly 64 hexadecimal character s. Hexadecimal characters are A-F, a-f, and 0-9.
If your wireless network is not using security, then you will not have a security key. Using a wireless network with
no security is not recommended because it can allow intruders to use your n etwork resources without your consent.
