Connecting in Wireless LAN (AP Mode) ••Connecting in Wireless LAN (AP Mode) The wireless LAN (AP mode) connects directly to a wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) without using a wireless LAN access point. Note •• You cannot enable wireless LAN (infrastructure) and wireless LAN (AP mode) at the same time. •• If you enable wireless LAN (AP mode), the machine enters sleep mode, but does not enter deep sleep mode. •• Do not place any devices (especially microwave ovens or digital cordless telephones) that emit weak electromagnetic waves near the machine. •• Wireless connections may be difficult if there is any metal, aluminum framed windows, or reinforced concrete walls between the machine and the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.). •• Wireless LAN connections may have slower transmission speeds than wired LAN or USB connections, depending on the environment. We recommend using a wired LAN or a USB connection to print large amounts of data, such as photographs. Preparing to use the wireless LAN (AP mode) The machine becomes a simple wireless access point, and wireless terminals (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) can connect directly to it. Before you start, confirm that the wireless device you are using supports the following environment. Item Value Standard IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Security WPA2-PSK(AES) Confirm the method to set up the wireless LAN (AP mode) Confirm that the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) you are using supports WPS-PBC (push button) and then select the setup method. If WPS-PBC is supported, refer to "Automatic Setup (Push Button)". If you do not know whether WPS is supported, refer to "Manual connections". •• Automatic Setup (Push Button) If the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) supports WPS-PBC (push button), then you can use the WPS button to connect via wireless LAN (AP mode). •• Manual connections If the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) does not support WPS-PBC (push button), then you can input the machine's SSID and password into the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) to connect. Automatic Setup (Push Button) If the wireless terminal (computer, tablet, smartphone, etc.) supports WPS-PBC (push button), then you can use the WPS button to connect via wireless (AP mode).
