Connect the Printer to a Wi-Fi Network

Before you begin, make sure that:

• The wireless access point or router is within range of the printer. Objects may interfere with Wi-Fi reception and the device's ability to reliably connect to the network. Things such as microwaves, cordless phones, or other electromagnetic devices may cause issues. Try to avoid moving the printer more than a room or two away and try to keep the machine on the same floor as the access point or router.

• Active Adapter is set to Auto. From the home screen, touch Settings > Network/Ports > Network Overview > Active Adapter.

• The Ethernet cable is not connected to the printer. This may disable the Wi-Fi connection as it will be the priority connection.

• Make sure your network is compatible with 2.4 GHz. Contact your internet service provider or router/access point manufacturer for further assistance.

Note: For non-touch-screen printer models, press Ok to navigate through the settings.
