Connect the interface cable securely. If it has a fastener, fasten that
securely as well.
See "Connecting the Machine", Printer Reference 1.
The type of interface cable you should use depends on the com-
puter. Be sure to use the correct one. If the cable is damaged or
worn, replace it.
See "Connecting the Machine", Printer Reference 1.
Connect the interface cable before turning on the machine.
To check the signal status, press { { { { User Tools/Counter/Inquiry} } } } on the
control panel, and then [System Settings] on the display panel. On
the [Interface Settings] tab, select [IEEE 802.11b] and then press [Wire-
less LAN Signal]. If signal quality is bad, move the machine to a lo-
cation where signals pass or remove any objects that block signals.
Confirm the machine's display panel that the SSID is correctly set.
See "Interface Settings/IEEE 802.11b (Option)", General Settings Guide.
Confirm the access point settings when in Infrastructure mode.
Depending on the access point, client access may be limited by the
MAC address.
Also, confirm there are no problems in transmission between ac-
cess point and wired clients, and between access point and wire-
less clients.
Confirm the orange LED is lit, and the green LED is lit or blinks
during transmission.
In that case, turn the main power switch off and on. Also, chang-
ing some of the settings in [Network] on the [Interface Settings] tab in
[System Settings] on the display panel may solve the problem.
