router) to learn how to set a network name.
If you set a new network name (SSID) on your wireless access point (wireless router), you must also change the name
of the network that the printer and computer are connected to.
• To change the network name that the computer is connected to, see the documentation that came with your
computer.
• To reset the network name that the printer is connected to:
1 Do one of the following:
– In Windows Vista, click .
