Key Format - You may select to use ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.

Key Length - You can choose “64-bit” to use WEP with 64-bit key length encryption or choose “128-bit” to use WEP with 128-bit key length encryption. The longer key length can provide better security but worse transmission throughput.

PassPhrase - A passphrase simplifies the WEP encryption process by automatically generating the WEP encryption keys for the print server.

Default Key - Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data. Only the key you select it in the “Default key” will take effect.

Key 1 - Key 4 - The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted within the wireless network. Fill the text box by following the rules below.

64-bit WEP: input 10-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 5-digit ASCII

character as the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef“ or “Guest“.

128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 10-digit

ASCII characters as the encryption keys. For example: “01234567890123456789abcdef“ or “administrator“.

WPA-shared key Security Mode:

When “WPA-shared key”, also named “WPA-PSK” requires users to select the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP and enter a set of shared key.

WPA Algorithms – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security.
