Samsung ML-2550 Series manual Hexadecimal Alphanumeric, Bit WEP Digits Characters

•Operation Mode: “Ad-hoc” mode allows the wireless devices to communicate directly with each other. This is the default operating mode for the print server.

If your network uses an Access Point, you must reconfigure the operation mode to “Infra”. “Infra” mode allows both wireless and cabled computers to send files to the printer through an Access Point.

If you select “Auto”, the print server selects the operation mode automatically according to the network cable’s connection each time it boots up. If the network cable is detected, the print server enters “Ad-hoc” mode; if not, enters “InfraStructure” mode.

•Channel: This option is available in the “Ad-hoc” mode only. In most cases, you will not need to change this setting. The print server will scan all available channels for the specified network and will adapt its channel to the one detected.

Default setting is 10.

•Authentication: “Open System” or “Shared Key”. The Samsung print server is not configured for network authentication (Open System). If required by your network, the proper authentication method must be configured on the print server.

•Encryption: No data Encryption, 64 bits, or 128 bits. Default setting is No data Encryption. If your network uses WEP encryption keys, you must configure the encryption keys. You can configure up to four keys. The active key must match the value and active key position (for example, Key 1) configured on other wireless devices.

•Using Key: Select the key to use in your network.
