Connect the Printer to Your Wireless Network
If you wish to use the printer’s optional wireless print server, you must first connect the printer to your
computer using one of the other available connections. While the printer is connected via one of those
connections, you configure the printer to communicate with your Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)
through the wireless print server.
