Making Wi-Fi Settings

control panel in several ways. Choose the connection
method that matches the environment and conditions
that you are using.

as SSID and password, you can make settings
manually.

that supports WPS, then you do auto settings by
pressing a button.
After connecting the printer to the network, connect
to the printer from the device that you want to use
(computer, smart device, tablet, and so on).
