The encryption key is incorrect. Check the encryption key of the wireless LAN access point
you want to connect is correct, and set the correct
encryption key.
When a same number is lined up in the encryption key, be
sure to press «OK» after inputting each number.
Example: To input 1233,
press «1» → «2» → «3» → «OK» → «3».
It is incorrect to press «1» → «2» → «3» → «3». In that
case, «1»«2»«d» is input, which is not the correct

The RSSI value is too small.*
Above ⑥
The signal strength is insufficient.
Put this machine in an unobstructed view position near the
wireless LAN access point. (The recommended distance is
30 m or less.)
Do not place an electric appliance (especially microwave
oven or digital cordless telephone) that emits weak
electronic waves near this machine.
It may be difficult to connect if there is a metal, aluminum
sash or reinforced concrete wall between this machine and
the wireless LAN access point.

The current frequency band is
congested.* Above ⑤
[Band] displays the current frequency band to which this
machine is connected.
This machine is compatible with the 2.4 Ghz/5.0 GHz band.
If the wireless LAN access point is compatible with the 2.4
GHz/5.0 GHz band, try changing the connecting frequency
band of the machine (or changing the SSID settings).

Since the communication may be unstable if the wired LAN
and
wireless LAN are connected to the same subnet, please
connect to a different subnet.
-
The setting of the enabled default
gateway is wired LAN instead of
wireless LAN.
To communicate with a terminal outside the segment via a
wireless LAN, press the
scroll buttons on the operator panel
to select [Admin Setup] - [Network Setup] - [General Setup]
- [Enabling Default Gateway] and set it to
[Wireless(Infrastructure)].
In that case, the wired LAN cannot communicate with
terminals outside the segment.
