A valid WEP key has:

•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9. or

•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols found on a keyboard.

No Security

It is not recommended to use no security at all on a home wireless network. Using no security means that anyone within range of your wireless network can use your network resources—including Internet access— if your wireless network is connected to the Internet. The range of your wireless network may extend far beyond the walls of your home, allowing access to your network from the street or from your neighbors’ homes.

Information you will need during wireless setup

To set up the printer for wireless printing, you need to know the following:

•The name of your wireless network, which is also known as the SSID (Service Set Identifier)

•If encryption was used to secure your network

•The security key (either a WEP key or WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase)

To find the WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase for the wireless network, see the documentation that came with the access point (wireless router), see the Web page associated with the access point, or consult your system support person.

If your access point is using WEP security, then the WEP key should be:

•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters or

•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters

If your access point is using WPA or WPA2 security, then the WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase should be:

•Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters or

•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters

Notes:

•Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.

•ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard. ASCII characters in a WPA/WPA2 preshared key/passphrase are case‑sensitive.
