Making a Wireless Network Connection

Before You Begin...

This chapter describes how to configure the HP Jetdirect print server with a wireless 
network connection to your network. Similar to connecting a network cable, a wireless 
network connection is required before you can discover and install the printer on your 
network systems. To configure a wireless connection, you must have a supported wireless 

computer.

Verify the following:

You have a wireless computer with one of the following operating systems: 

Microsoft Windows 9x, Me, NT 4.0, 2000, XP

Apple Mac OS 8.6, 9.x, X 10.1 or greater

Your system’s wireless configuration utility and interface card are working properly.

You have installed the HP Jetdirect print server hardware and have printed a Jetdirect 
configuration page.

(infrastructure mode only) The access point on your network is operating properly.

Note

After setting up a wireless network connection, use caution when resetting the 
print server to factory-defaults. The network connection will be lost, and you will 
need to reconfigure the print server.  See also page 5-14.
