Information you will need to set up the printer on a
wireless network
To successfully configure the printer wirelessly, you must begin with a computer that is connected to the wireless
network where you want to install the printer. You will need the network SSID (also called the Network Name or
Service Set ID)
Different wireless networks require different security information. While not recommended, some wireless networks
are not secure and have no security information. Select No security if your network is not secure.
If your wireless network is secure, you may need the following information:
• WEP key(s)—Required for WEP security
• WPA/WPA2 passphrase—Required for WPA and WPA2 security. If your network uses WPA or WPA2 security,
choose WPA Personal during installation.
Note: The network WEP key and WPA passphrase are not the same as the password for the wireless access point
(wireless router). The password allows you to access the wireless access point settings, while the WEP key or WPA
passphrase allows printers and computers to join your wireless network.
Note: Make sure you copy down the security key and SSID exactly, including any capital letters, and store it in a safe
place for future reference. Use the space provided below to write down this information.
