When the optional IEEE 802.11b interface unit Is Installed

When using the wireless LAN interface on the network, note the following:
❖ When moving the machine
Detach the antennas when relocating the machine locally.
After moving the machine, reattach the antennas, ensuring that:
• The antennas are positioned clear of obstacles.
• There is 40 to 60 mm between the antennas, so that they do not touch.
• The exposure glass cover and the Auto Document Feeder (ADF) do not
knock the antennas.
❖ If the network area provides poor radio environment
Where radio wave conditions are bad, the network may not function due to
interrupted or failed connections. When checking the wireless LAN signal
and the access point, follow the procedure below to improve the situation:
• Position the access point nearer to the machine.
• Clear the space between access point and machine of obstructions.
• Move radio wave generating appliances, such as microwaves, away from
the machine and access point.
Note
❒ For information about how to check radio wave status, see the General Set-
tings Guide.
❒ For more information about access point radio wave conditions, refer to the
access point manual.
