▪Wi-Fi Direct On/Off: Select On to enable.
▪Device Name: Enter the printer’s name for searching for your printer
on a wireless network. By default, the device name is the model
name.
▪IP Address: Enter the IP address of the printer. This IP address is used
only for the local network and not for the infrastructure wired or
wireless network. We recommend using the default local IP address
(the default local IP address of the printer for Wi-Fi Direct is
192.168.3.1 )
▪Group Owner: Activate this option to assign the printer the Wi-Fi
Direct group’s owner. The Group Owner acts similar to a wireless
access point. We recommend activating this option.
▪Network Key: If your printer is a Group Owner, a Network Key is
required for other mobile devices to connect to your printer. You
can configure a network key yourself, or can remember the given
Network Key that is randomly generated by default.
