Interoperability

Wireless networks use radio signals to connect devices
throughout businesses and homes. Wireless networks can be
instituted as a fully functional local area network, but without
the cables.
The WorkCentre Pro is compatible with Ethernet 802.11b
wireless networks.
Attaching the WorkCentre Pro to your Ethernet 802.11b
wireless network can improve productivity by giving
employees access to printing capabilities and all other
optional network features anywhere within range of an access
point including conference rooms, colleagues offices, training
rooms and branch offices. Wireless networking allows
increased mobility of the WorkCentre Pro devices by allowing
you to place them anywhere you need to. You could use the
WorkCentre Pro in non wired locations such as plaster walled
structures and older, solid walled buildings. The WorkCentre
Pro can communicate fully with all devices on the wireless
network as well as those connected to the wired Ethernet
network.
To Communicate with the WorkCentre Pro over your Wireless
Network
1. Purchase a compatible Ethernet 802.11b wireless
Ethernet bridge.
2. Connect your WorkCentre Pro Ethernet port to the
wireless Ethernet bridge.
3. Click the Network Connectivity tab and select Printer
Installation from the menu list for instructions on how to
configure the WorkCentre Pro for network printing.
