To use the print server for printing from a wireless network, you need an 802.11b/g wireless
network. The wireless network consists of either of the following:
♦
An 802.11b/g wireless enabled computer printing straight to the printer (Ad-Hoc, or peer-to-
peer, mode).
♦
An 802.11b/g wireless access point allowing wireless enabled computers to print to the print
server (infrastructure mode).
To configure and print, you need the following information from your wireless network
administrator:
♦
Wireless Mode (infrastructure or Ad-Hoc)
♦
The SSID (service set identifier) for your wireless network.
♦
If you are using TCP/IP (recommended for Windows Networks) and are not connected to a
server that automatically assigns your IP address, you need to set the printer in Static mode
and assign a unique IP address (for example: 192.168.1.14) and a subnet mask. A router
(default gateway) address is optional.

two screws with a Phillips screwdriver.
