It allows you to configure a secured wireless network between your Brother machine and a mobile device, such as an Android™ device, Windows Phone® device, iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad, without using an access point. Wi-Fi Direct supports wireless network configuration using the one-push or PIN Method of Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ (WPS). You can also configure a wireless network by manually setting a SSID and password. Your Brother machine's Wi-Fi Direct feature supports WPA2™ security with AES encryption. To print or scan directly from your mobile device, download Brother iPrint&Scan from Google Play™ Store app (Android Market™) or the App Store. For more information, see the Mobile Print/Scan Guide for Brother iPrint & Scan. Go to your model's Manuals page on the Brother Solutions Center at http://support.brother.com to download the guide. 1 2 1. Mobile device 2. Your Brother machine • Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired (supported models only) and wireless network, only one connection method can be used at a time. However, a wireless network connection and Wi-Fi Direct connection, or a wired network connection and Wi-Fi Direct connection can be used at the same time. • The Wi-Fi Direct supported device can become a Group Owner (G/O). When configuring the Wi-Fi Direct network, the Group Owner (G/O) serves as an access point. • Ad-hoc mode and Wi-Fi Direct cannot be used at the same time. Disable one function to enable the other. If you want to use Wi-Fi Direct while you are using Ad-hoc mode, set Network I/F to Wired LAN or disable Ad-hoc mode and connect your Brother machine to the access point.
