Using Wi-Fi Direct on your Printer
Wi-Fi Direct is a direct wireless connection from your mobile device to the printer. The Wi-Fi Direct feature is
enabled by default when the Wi-Fi hardware is installed.
Using the Wi-Fi Direct feature does not require a wireless network connection to a printer. Contact your System
Administrator to connect your printer to a wired or wireless network.
