• An IP address cannot be used for
the IPP port name because the IP
address is used for the SmartDe-
viceMonitor for Client port name.
When the IEEE 80211.b
interface unit (optional) Is
Installed
When using the wireless LAN inter-
face on the network, note the follow-
ing:
❖
❖❖
❖ When moving the machine
Detach the antennas when relocat-
ing the machine locally.
After moving the machine, reat-
tach the antennas, ensuring that:
• The antennas are positioned
clear of obstacles.
• There is 40 to 60 mm between
the antennas, so that they do not
touch.
• The exposure glass cover and
the Auto Document Feeder
(ADF) do not knock the anten-
nas.
❖
❖❖
❖ If the network area provides poor ra-
dio environment
Where radio wave conditions are
bad, the network may not function
due to interrupted or failed con-
nections. When checking the wire-
less LAN signal and the access
point, follow the procedure below
to improve the situation:
• Position the access point nearer
to the machine.
• Clear the space between access
point and machine of obstruc-
tions.
•
Move radio wave generating ap-
pliances
, such as microwaves,
away from the machine and ac-
cess point.

For information about how to
check radio wave status, see p.13
“Checking the machine's radio
wave status”.
For more information about access
point radio wave conditions, refer
to the access point manual.
