Signal Strength
The connection between the device and access point is shown as
signal strength, which is a percentage from 0 to 100, where 0 is no
connection and 100 is an excellent connection. A percentage below
30 indicates you may be experiencing interference or are close to
being out of the access point’s range. With a percentage below 50,
printing performance could be affected. If the signal strength is low,
increase the number of retries. To improve the signal strength, try
moving the printer closer to the access point and away from other
radio devices such as Bluetooth wireless devices, microwave ovens,
or 2.4-gigahertz cordless phones.
Note: If the printer is not communicating with the print server’s
network card, the Network Menu options do not appear.
To view the signal strength, from the Main Menu: Select Setup,
Network, Wireless. Then follow these steps.
