Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a network standard for setting up a wireless network. The WPS proto-

cols enable you to set up devices in a secure wireless network without having wireless networking ex-

perience. 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 en-

ter 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.
