Windows System Requirements - Epson Stylus C84WN Setup And Installation Manual

Before you can set up your EPSON Stylus C84WN, you need to decide how you
will use it: either with an access point (in infrastructure mode), or without an access
point (in ad hoc mode, also called ad hoc 802.11b, computer-to-computer, and
peer-to-peer).

Windows System Requirements

For wireless printing with the EPSON Stylus C84WN, make sure each computer
meets the following requirements:
®
A Microsoft Windows
equivalent processor, 333 MHz or faster recommended
Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT
Windows XP
64MB of RAM (128MB recommended)
100MB of free hard disk space (200MB or more recommended)
VGA or better display adapter and monitor (SVGA for Windows XP)
CD-ROM or DVD drive for installing the printer software
In addition, each computer needs to be connected to an existing wired network
with a wireless access point, or needs to have a wireless card or adapter.
You can use an access point alone or in combination with a hub or router.

works in ad hoc mode.
