Connecting To A Wireless Lan - Canon i-SENSYS LBP151dw User Manual

Connecting to a Wireless LAN

Wireless routers (or access points) connect the machine to a computer via radio waves. If your wireless router is
equipped with Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), you can configure your network with a simple button push. If your
networking devices do not support automatic configuration, or if you want to specify authentication and encryption
settings in detail, you need to set up the connection manually. To make wireless settings for this machine, use the
MF/LBP Network Setup Tool from your computer. Make sure that your computer is correctly connected to the network.

Risk of information leak
Use wireless LAN connection at your own discretion and at your own risk. If the machine is connected to an
unsecured network, your personal information might be leaked to a third party because radio waves used in
wireless communication can go anywhere nearby, even beyond walls.
