To configure the wireless network settings:

1Press Menu until you see “Network Setup” on the top line of the display.

2Press the scroll button ( or ) until “Config Network” displays on the bottom line.

3Press Enter to access the menu.

4Press the scroll button ( or ) until “802.11b” displays on the bottom line. Press Enter.

You can configure the following items:

SSID Type: When you select “Search List,” the wireless network card on your machine searches for wireless networks in the area and displays the results on a list. Select a network from the list. You cannot change “Operation Mode” and “Channel”.

If you select “Custom”, you can configure the wireless settings according to your needs and enter a name of up to 32 letters for your “Custom” setting. “SSID Type” is case sensitive, so you need to change it carefully. Using the Scroll buttons, find the alphabet you want and press the Enter. When the cursor moves to the next input field, enter the following letters the same way you entered the first letter. After you entered the last letter of the name, press the Enter once again to save the ID. The way to enter the key number for the encryption key is the same as entering letters.

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 “InfraStructure.” “InfraStructure” mode allows both wireless and cabled computers to send files to the machine 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 a network cable is detected, the print server enters “Ad-hoc” mode; if not, it 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. The default setting is 10.
