After checking the wireless router setting, make sure the printer is not placed far away from the wireless router. The printer can be up to 50 m (164 ft) from the wireless router. Make sure the printer is close enough to the wireless router to be used. Place the printer and wireless router where there are no obstacles between them. Wireless communication between different rooms or floors is generally poor. Wireless communication can be impeded by building materials containing metal or concrete. If the printer cannot communicate with the computer over a Wi-Fi due to a wall, place the printer and the computer in the same room. In addition, if a device like a microwave oven that emits radio waves of the same frequency bandwidth as a wireless router is nearby, it may cause interference. Place the wireless router as far away from interference sources as possible. Note • Though an antenna is attached to most wireless routers, some of them have it inside. • Check wireless router setting. The printer and wireless router should be connected using 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bandwidth. Make sure the wireless router for the printer's destination is configured to use 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz bandwidth. 415
