Finding the signal strength
The signal strength tells you how strongly the computer or printer is receiving the wireless signal from the wireless
network. Poor signal quality could affect connectivity during configuration.
Checking computer connectivity
1 From your computer system tray, click the wireless icon that corresponds to the software managing your wireless
network adapter.
2 Check the signal quality.
Checking printer connectivity
From the printer, print a network setup page.
In the Wireless section, look for Quality.
View the signal strength from the printer control panel.
Navigate to:
> Network Setup > Wireless Networking
The signal bars indicating the signal quality appear beside the network name.
To improve signal quality, remove sources of interference and/or move wireless devices closer to the access point
(wireless router).
