Cannot Find Printer on Check Printer Settings Screen During Wireless LAN Setup (Windows)-Checking Wireless LAN Environment Is printer connected to wireless router? Use the icon on the touch screen to make sure the printer is connected to the wireless router. If icon is displayed: • Checking wireless router location 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 indoors. Make sure the printer is close enough to the wireless router to be used. Place the wireless router and printer 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 wireless LAN 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, note that some of them have it inside. • Checking wireless router settings 374
