Before setting up the device, it is recommended that you temporarily connect the device to the computer with a USB cable to set up the wireless connection. Once the wireless connection is established, you will remove the cable and print wirelessly. You can also set up the device without using a USB cable.

About 802.11
802.11 wireless technology allows you to wirelessly connect to your device by setting
up “ad hoc” communication between your computer and the device. 802.11 does not
require a direct line of sight between the sending device and the receiving device.
When you set up ad hoc communication between your computer and the device, you
are creating a network of two devices. This is the recommended setup for 802.11
printing to this mobile printer.
802.11 also lets you set up the device on an existing “infrastructure” network. Setting it
up on an infrastructure network puts the device directly onto a local area network
(LAN) using a wireless connection to an 802.11 wireless access point (WAP). Once
the device is successfully connected to the network wirelessly, then all the computers
on the same subnet can use the device.
Before setting up the device, it is recommended that you temporarily connect the
device to the computer with a USB cable to set up the wireless connection. Once the
wireless connection is established, you will remove the cable and print wirelessly. You
can also set up the device without using a USB cable.
