Before you begin
Before you begin setting up the wireless connection, check the following:
• The wireless network is set up and functioning correctly.
• The printer and the computers that use the printer are on the same network (subnet).
While connecting the printer, you might be prompted to enter the wireless network name (SSID)
and a wireless password:
• The wireless network name is the name of your wireless network.
• The wireless password prevents other people from connecting to your wireless network
without your permission. Depending on the level of security required, your wireless network
might use either a WPA key or WEP passphrase.
If you have not changed the network name or the security passkey since setting up your wireless
network, you can sometimes find them on the back or side of the wireless router.
If you cannot find the network name or the security passkey or cannot remember this information,
see the documentation available with your computer or with the wireless router. If you still cannot
find this information, contact your network administrator or the person who set up the wireless
network.
