Networking Notes: • Purchase a MarkNetTM N8350 wireless network adapter first before setting up the printer on a wireless network. • A Service Set Identifier (SSID) is a name assigned to a wireless network. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), and WPA2 are types of security used on a network. Preparing to set up the scanner on an Ethernet network Note: If your network automatically assigns IP addresses to computers and other devices, continue on to installing the scanner. To configure your scanner to connect to an Ethernet network, organize the following information before you begin: • A valid, unique IP address for the scanner to use on the network • The network gateway • The network mask • A nickname for the scanner (optional) Note: A scanner nickname makes it easier for you to identify your scanner on the network. You can choose to use the default scanner nickname, or you can assign a name that is easier to remember. You will need an Ethernet cable to connect the scanner to the network and an available port where the scanner can physically connect to the network. Use a new network cable when possible to avoid potential problems caused by a damaged cable. Installing the scanner on an Ethernet network Note: Make sure you have completed the initial setup of the scanner.
