Connecting in Wireless LAN
(Infrastructure Mode) (Optional)
Note
● In a wireless LAN environment, the machine enters sleep
mode, but does not enter deep sleep mode.
● Do not place any devices (especially microwave
ovens or digital cordless telephones) that emit weak
electromagnetic waves near the machine.
● Install the machine near a wireless LAN access point or
wireless device with no obstacles between them (the
distance should be within 30 m).
● Wireless connections may be difcult if there is any metal,
aluminum framed windows, or reinforced concrete walls
between the machine and the wireless LAN access point.
● Wireless LAN connections may have slower transmission
speeds, depending on the environment, than wired LAN
or USB connections. We recommend using a wired LAN or
a USB connection to print large amounts of data, such as
photographs.
