cannot communicate with the computer over a Wi-Fi due to a wall, place the printer and the computer in
the same room.
• After changing the installation location, print out the network settings information again and check the
status of the signal. Compare with the value in section "3-2-1" in the printed network settings information
and place the printer in the location with a higher value.
