Making Wi-Fi Settings by PIN Code Setup (WPS)

You can connect to an access point by using a PIN code. You can use this method to set up if an access point is
capable of WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). Use a computer to enter a PIN code into the access point.
1. Select Setup on the home screen, and then press the OK button.
2. Select Network Settings and then press the OK button.
3. Select Wi-Fi Setup on the home screen and then press the OK button.
4. Select PIN Code Setup (WPS) and then press the OK button.
5. Use your computer to enter the PIN code (an eight digit number) displayed on the printer's control panel into
the access point within two minutes.
Note:
See the documentation provided with your access point for details on entering a PIN code.
6. Press the OK button.
Setup is complete when the setup completion message is displayed.
Note:
If connection fails, restart the access point, move it closer to the printer, and try again. If it still does not work, print a
connection report and check the solution.

Making Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) Connection Settings

This method allows you to connect the printer directly to computer or smart devices without an access point. The
printer acts as an access point.
Important:
c
When you connect from a computer or smart device to the printer using the Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection,
the printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network (SSID) as the computer or smart device and the communication
is established between them. Since the computer or smart device is automatically connected to the other connectable
Wi-Fi network if the printer is turned off, it is not connected to the previous Wi-Fi network again if the printer is
turned on. Connect to the printer's SSID for Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) connection from the computer or smart
device again. If you do not want to connect every time you turn the printer on or off, we recommend using Wi-Fi
network by connecting the printer to an access point.
1. Select Wi-Fi Setup on the home screen, and then press the OK button.
