Connecting to a Network with a Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a network standard for setting up a wireless network. The WPS protocols
enable you to set up devices in a secure wireless network without having wireless networking experience.
With a WPS-certified router, you can use tools in the router and the printer to connect the printer to the
network. To use the tools, ensure that the wireless router is configured properly and is compliant with the
WPS.
• Push Button Connection (PBC) is the easiest way to connect the printer to a wireless network. It
automatically connects when you push a button on the router and on the printer. After the router
and printer exchange information, the printer accepts the security and configuration information
from the router and connects to the network. The PBC is a moderately secure way to connect the
printer to the network. You do not need to enter any information to make the network connection.
• PIN (Personal Identification Number) automatically connects the printer to a wireless router using a
common PIN. The printer generates and prints a PIN for use in the setup process. When you enter
the PIN into the router, the router broadcasts network information using the PIN. When both
devices recognize the PIN, the router provides the security and configuration information to the
printer, which uses it to connect to the network.
To connect to a WPS wireless network using the PBC method:
Note: Before you install the device, ensure that the wireless router is connected to the network and
properly configured.
1. At the printer control panel, press the Menu button.
Note: To navigate through the menu, use the arrow buttons.
2. Navigate to Admin Menu, then press OK.
Navigate to Network/Port, then press OK.
3.
4. Navigate to Wi-Fi Settings, then press OK.
Navigate to WPS Setup, then press OK.

6. Navigate to Start PBC, then press OK.
