Solving Problems
❏ If the IP address assigned to the printer is 169.254.XXX.XXX, and the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0, the IP address
may not be assigned correctly. Restart the wireless router or reset the network settings for the printer. If this
does not solve the problem, see the documentation for the wireless router.
❏ Try accessing any website from your computer to make sure that your computer's network settings are correct.
If you cannot access any website, there is a problem on the computer. Check the network connection of the
computer.
