Home > Overview of the Printer > About Network Communication > Appendix for Network Communication > About Technical Terms N100 About Technical Terms In this section, technical terms used in the manual are explained. Access Point A wireless transceiver or base station that receives information from wireless clients/the printer and rebroadcasts it.
Page 414 For WPA/WPA2, authentication method is PSK. Auto The printer automatically changes its authentication method to match the access point. Open System In this authentication method, the communication partner is authenticated without using WEP key even if Use Password (WEP) is selected. Shared Key In this authentication method, the communication partner is authenticated using the WEP key that was set for encryption.
Page 415 when using two or more antennas simultaneously or obtaining a bigger transfer rate than before by using multiple communication channels at the same time, the transmission speed may be influenced by the connected apparatus. At the maximum transfer rate of 600 Mbps, it is possible to communicate with multiple computer terminals within a dozen or so metre radius.
Page 416 Network (SSID) Unique label for wireless LAN. It is often represented such as a network name or a access point name. SSID distinguishes one wireless LAN from another to prevent interference. The printer and all clients on a wireless LAN must use the same SSID in order to communicate with each other.
Page 417 TCP/IP Suite of communications protocols used to connect hosts on the Internet or the LAN. This protocol allows different terminals to communicate with each other. TKIP An encryption protocol employed by WPA/WPA2. Serial interface designed to enable you to "hot-swap" devices, i.e., by plugging and unplugging them without turning off the power.
Page 418 The passphrase should be a string of 8 to 63 alphanumeric characters or a 64-digit hexadecimal value. WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) WPS is a standard for easy and secure establishment of a wireless network. There are 2 primary methods used in the Wi-Fi Protected Setup: PIN entry: a mandatory method of setup for all WPS certified devices Push button configuration (PBC): an actual push button on the hardware or through a simulated push button in the software.
