Wireless Network Connection

A wireless local area network (WLAN) provides the means to connect two or more devices in a LAN

without a physical connection. The printer can connect to a wireless LAN that includes a wireless router

or wireless access point. Before connecting the printer to a wireless network, the wireless router must be

configured with a service set identifier (SSID), a passphrase, and security protocols.

Connecting to a Wireless Network Using the Wireless Install Wizard

Before you begin, ensure that you have the wireless network Service Set Identifier (SSID), encryption

type, and passphrase. For details, refer to

Connecting to a Wireless Network Manually

on page 44.

To display the Wireless Hardware Available screen:

−

Turn on the power switch and wait for the Wireless Hardware Available screen to display, then

touch

Configure Wireless.

−

If the printer is on and the Wireless Hardware Available screen is not displayed, press the

Machine Status button. Then touch Network Settings > Network Connectivity > Wireless.

Note:

To access this feature at the control panel, log in as an administrator.

To connect to a network, from the list of available networks, select a network.

If you selected a secure wireless network, touch Network Login.

To access the network, enter the passcode for the selected network, then touch the Check Mark

button.

On the Network Confirmation screen, note the IP Address, then touch X.

Connecting to a Wireless Network Manually

When connecting to a wireless network that does not include a WPS-compliant router, set up and

configure the printer manually. Before starting, you must get the setup and configuration information,

such as name and passphrase, from the router. After you collect the network information, you can set up

the printer from the control panel or from Xerox

CentreWare

Internet Services. For the easiest manual

connection, use Xerox

CentreWare

Internet Services.

Before you begin:
•

The wireless router must be connected and properly configured for the network before you install

the printer. For details, see your router documentation.

•

Use the instructions provided with your wireless router or access point to record the following

information:
−

Name (SSID)

−

Security Options (Encryption Type)

−

Passphrase

Note:

The network name and passphrase are case sensitive.
