Interpreting the colors of the Wi-Fi indicator light The Wi-Fi indicator light helps you determine the network status of the printer.

The light should be in this state: - When the printer is turned off - When the printer is in power saver mode - When the printer does not have an internal print server installed and you want to connect the printer to the computer using a USB cable • Orange may indicate that the printer is being configured for use on the wireless network, the internal print server is not configured in infrastructure mode, or the internal print server is waiting to be configured for ad hoc mode. The light should be in this state: - When you want to use the printer without a computer - When you want to set up the printer on your wireless network - When the printer is set up for an ad hoc network and is broadcasting its wireless network name (SSID) • Blinking orange may indicate that: - The printer is out of the range of the wireless access point (wireless router). - The printer is trying to communicate with the wireless access point (wireless router), but the wireless access point (wireless router) may be turned off or not working properly. - The printer is trying to establish communication with the wireless access point (wireless router). This is true if you have already configured the printer for use on your wireless network.
