Configure multiple printers for 802.11 (Windows)
You can use the Wireless Profile Configuration Utility to conveniently set up multiple
devices for wireless connection. This utility exports the device’s wireless profile
settings to a USB Flash drive. You can then configure other devices with these
settings by inserting the flash drive into another device’s USB host port.
NOTE: The Wireless Profile Configuration Utility is supported on the following
operating systems: Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
To use the Wireless Profile Configuration Utility
1. Insert the 802.11 wireless USB accessory into the slot.
2. Connect the USB Flash drive to the other USB host port. For the location of this
port, see

When the USB Flash drive is inserted, the 802.11 wireless USB accessory lights
will turn off. The lights will turn on again after the 802.11 settings have been
configured on the USB Flash drive.
3. Close any running applications.
4. Insert the Starter CD into the CD drive. The CD menu runs automatically.
If the CD menu does not start automatically, double-click the Setup icon on the
Starter CD.

6. Follow the onscreen instructions to export the device’s wireless profile settings to a
USB Flash drive and then configure the other devices by moving the USB Flash
drive to the USB host port of each device.
