No IP address with cable modem (without a router)
Probable Cause
If you have a computer with a cable modem, a separate Local Area Network (LAN) for your
other computers, and no DHCP or router, you must use
AutoIP to assign IP addresses to
the other computers and to the printer.
Corrective Action
To obtain an IP address for the computer with the cable modem
Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) assigns either a static or dynamic IP address to the
computer with the cable modem.
To assign IP addresses to the remaining computers and the All-in-One printer
Use
AutoIP to assign IP addresses to the remaining computers and the printer. Do not
assign a static IP address.
Wireless troubleshooting
No SSID
Probable Cause 1
Your access point is not broadcasting its network name (SSID) because the
Broadcast
SSID
option is turned off.
Corrective Action
Access the Embedded Web Server and turn on the
Broadcast SSID option.
Probable Cause 2
The access point (infrastructure) or computer (ad hoc) is out of range.
Corrective Action
In order to establish a good signal between the printer and access point (infrastructure) or
computer (ad hoc), try doing the following things separately or in combination.
• If there is a long distance between your computer or access point and the printer, move
them closer together.
• If there are metal objects (such as a metal bookcase or refrigerator) in the transmission
path, clear the path between the printer and the computer or access point.
• If a cordless telephone, microwave, or other device that emits radio signals transmitting
at 2.4 GHz is nearby, move it farther away to reduce radio interference.
