Connection options
Wireless connection
You must install the software on every computer from which 
you want to print. For the fi rst installation, we recommend 
using a USB cable (not included) to simplify wireless setup. 
After the printer is connected to the network, you will be 
prompted to remove the cable. 
If you’re using Mac OS X 10.6, 10.7, or 10.8, or you don’t 
have a USB cable, you will need to use the buttons on the 
printer to select wireless settings. Follow the instructions on 
your computer screen during software installation; they will 
explain how to connect the printer wirelessly this way.
 Make sure you know your network name (SSID) and network 
password:
•  Network name 
•  Network password 
If you don’t have this information, contact the person who set 
up your network.
To view how-to-videos on setting up your printer’s wireless 
connection, go to epson.com/support (U.S.) or
epson.ca/support (Canada).
Direct USB connection
Make sure you have a USB cable (not included).
Any problems?
If you experience problems during setup, see below: 
Network setup was unsuccessful.

 Repeatedly press the numeric keypad buttons as 
necessary to select uppercase letters (ABC), lowercase 
letters (abc), or numbers and symbols (123).
