SSID
The SSID (Service Set Identifi er) is 0-32 characters used to differentiate
wireless LANs that overlap in frequency and physical coverage area.
An empty SSID string signifi es that the printer will associate with any
network. By default SSID is “INTERMEC”.
Non-alphanumeric octets are entered by “%HH” (a percent sign and two
hexadecimal digits (0-9, a-f, A-F) representing the value of the character).
Example: “12%2034” is equivalent to “12 34”. The percent sign is
represented by “%25’. The SSID is possible to change by allowed users
on the printer’s web page.
<STX><SI>ws,SSID,qwerty<ETX>
Sets SSID to “qwerty”.
<STX><SI>wt,SSID<ETX>
Transmits current SSID.
The SSID is shown on the network test label and on the printer’s home
page.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) uses a secret (40 or 104 bits long)
together with a 24-bit “IV” (Initialization Vector) to form a key used to
encrypt the data sent over radio.
The printer can have up to 4 WEP 64 and/or WEP 128 keys. There
is a key selection setting to select which key that will be used when
transmitting. Its value will be 0-4 (0 signifying that WEP is disabled;
1-4 selecting one of the confi gured keys). It is possible to select an un-
confi gured key (this disables WEP). By default, WEP is disabled, and no
keys will be confi gured.
WEP keys are entered either in a hexadecimal notation or in an
alphanumerical notation. A string starting with “0x” (a zero followed
by a lower-case x) followed by 10 or 26 characters is interpreted as a
WEP key in hex-notation; anything else is interpreted as a WEP key in
alphanumerical notation. If a key is set to the empty string it is said to
be un-confi gured. If the wireless data is WEP encrypted, it is possible to
change the WEP keys on the printer’s home page.
