View Wireless Status through the Control Panel

After the wireless print server is configured, you may view the wireless status on the printer’s control panel in many cases.

Printers with an LCD display text or symbols (see LCD Link Status and Wireless Signal Indicators).

The HC100 printer does not have an LCD, so the wireless status is indicated by the control panel lights (see HC100 Wireless Status Indicator Lights on page 54).

The ZT210, ZT220, and ZT230 printers also use control panel lights to indicate the wireless status (see ZT210, ZT220, ZT230, ZT410, and ZT420 Wired and Wireless Status Indicator Lights on page 55).

Note • Refer to the User Guide for your printer for specific instructions on how to use the control panel.
