WLAN Type
Possible Values: Infrastructure*, Peer-to-Peer
This feature specifies the type of wireless network the printer will be attached to. An Infrastructure network
consists of nodes that connect to each other and/or a wired network through an Access Point. A Peer-to-Peer ,
or Ad-Hoc, network consists of nodes that connect directly to each other without the control of an access point.
Note: When using Control Panel Setup to change the WLAN Type to Peer-to-Peer, the following features
will also be changed. To change these features back to their original settings will require the use of
the Printek Mobile Setup Utility.
IP Address Assign will be set to "Static"
IP Address will be set to "192.168.0.2"
WLAN Channel will be set to "1"
WLAN WEP will be set to "Disabled"
WLAN Channel
Possible Values: 1* ... 14
Note that this feature is only available if the WLAN Type is set to Peer-to-Peer.
This feature sets the radio channel to be used when communicating in a Peer-to-Peer network. When in an
Infrastructure network, the radio channel is automatically assigned by the interface and Access Point.
WLAN SSID
Possible Values: any*,
Up to 16 characters of "0" through "9", "A" through "Z", "a" through "z",
This feature specifies the "name" of the network the printer will connect to. This allows communications to be
controlled, or routed to the appropriate nodes when multiple wireless networks are present. When set to "any",
the printer may connect to any available network(s).
WLAN WEP Bits
Possible Values: 0*, 64, 128
This feature specifies the level of Wired Equivalent Security to use. If set to "0", security is turned off. If set to
a"64" or "128" bit encryption level, a WEP Key must be entered that matches the key on the other nodes on the
network.
WEP Key 1, WEP Key 2, WEP Key 3, WEP Key 4
Possible Values: 10 or 26 character user specified hexadecimal string
Note that this feature is only available if WLAN WEP Bits is set to 64 or 128.
This feature specifies an encryption "key" or password that is used to encrypt/decrypt data on the network. If
WLAN WEP Bits is set to "64", a ten character hexadecimal string must be entered that matches the key on the
other nodes the printer will be communicating with. If WLAN WEP Bits is set to "128", a 26 character
hexadecimal string must be entered.
