Connecting with WPS

If the wireless LAN access point supports WPS, you can easily connect to the wireless LAN with the easy setup button (WPS button).

  1. Check the position of the WPS button by referring to the instruction manual that is included in a wireless LAN access point or other document.

  2. Check that the wireless LAN access point starts and is operating properly.

  3. Turn on the machine.

  4. Press the scroll button several times to select [Wireless(Infrastructure) Setting] and press the «ENTER» button.

  5. Enter the administrator password using the numeric (0-9) keys, and then press the «ENTER» button.

    The factory default administrator password is "123456". If the administrator password is changed, enter the updated password.

    The "It is not possible to use the Wireless(AP Mode) at the same time." message is displayed for approximately five seconds.

  6. Press the scroll button to select [Enable] and then press the «ENTER» button.

  7. Press the scroll button several times to select [Automatic setup(WPS)] and press the «ENTER» button.

  8. Select [WPS-PBC], and press the «ENTER» button.

  9. When [Pushbutton method] is displayed, select [Yes] and press the «ENTER» button.

    The machine starts searching for wireless LAN access points. The "Running pushbutton method..." message is displayed on the screen.

  10. Press for a few seconds the WPS button on the wireless LAN access point while the message is displayed.

    Note

    • [Running pushbutton method...] is displayed for approximately two minutes. While this message is displayed, press the push button of the wireless LAN access point.

    • You cannot operate the panel when WPS is in progress.

  11. When [WPS connection successful.] is displayed, it indicates that the wireless LAN setup has completed.

    Go to the procedure to "Installing a Printer Driver to a Computer".

    Memo

    • If [Connection failed. Timeout] is displayed, repeat the procedure from step 6.

    • [Overlap] is displayed when multiple WPS push buttons are pressed almost at the same time at two or more wireless LAN access points and connection is not established. Wait for a while, and then try again.

    If the antenna mark is displayed at the top right of the display screen, the connection is established correctly.

If WPS method does not work, go to "Connecting by Selecting a Wireless LAN Access Point from the Operator Panel".
