Step 4:
Enter the SSID, BSSID (format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx), Channel, Security and Encryption. The Channel
setting is a hint to the printer about which channel the access point will located on. Providing
the correct channel will result in a faster connection to the access point when powering up the
printer. If you enter the wrong channel it will not cause the connection to fail. The printer will
first scan for the access point on the indicated channel and if not found will widen the search to
all channels. Some wireless access points can be configured to auto select their channel when
powered on (channel used may be different each time). In this case set the channel to zero,
which tells the printer to scan all channels to find the access point before connecting. If you
don’t know the correct channel, setting the channel to zero is the best choice. Set the Security
entry before Encryption. The Encryption choices will be limited by the Security setting.

Warning! When using manual entry of wireless settings, you must be careful to enter all the
data correctly or the printer may fail to connect to an access point. If you are not sure about the
settings, check with your IT department. Most access points provide a web page for
configuration. If you can access this web page you can determine the proper settings for SSID,
BSSID, Channel, Security and Encryption. Be careful with the Security and Encryption settings.
An access point may be configured to allow only certain Security/Encryption capabilities, like
only WPA2/CCMP. In this case, trying to connect with WPA/TKIP would fail.

Step 5:
Enter the Key (if using WEP40 or WEP104) or the Passphrase (if using WPA or WPA2). If the
security is WEP, you must enter exactly 10 (WEP40) or 26 (WEP104) hex characters (0 – 9, A –
F). If the security is WPA or WPA2, you must enter at least 8 visible ASCII character for the
passphrase. The key or passphrase must be identical to the one that has been entered into the
wireless access point. Check with your IT department to get the correct key or passphrase.

Warning! Entering an incorrect WEP key will not result in a failure to connect, but
communications with the printer will not work through the wireless interface. Entering an
incorrect WPA/WPA2 passphrase will result in a connection failure. It is very important to use
the correct key or passphrase and enter it correctly.
