Wireless
NOTE: You can use HP Jetdirect wired/wireless print servers in a wired or wireless networking
environment. To specify the connection type, see
Use the Wireless pages to create or change your wireless network configuration parameters for your
IEEE 802.11 wireless Ethernet connection.
The configuration parameters are summarized in
on page 67.
The Wireless page displays all wireless configuration parameters required to make a wireless
connection to your network. Click Apply to set, or Cancel to ignore, your configuration entries. To reset
to factory-default values, click Restore Defaults.
Alternatively, you can click the Wireless Wizard button in the General section of the Wireless page to
configure your wireless network connection. This launches a configuration wizard that guides you
through the required 802.11 wireless configuration parameters and, depending on your choices,
bypasses unnecessary parameters.
NOTE: If you improperly exit the wizard, for example by failing to use the Cancel button, an Operation
Failed screen might appear. If so, wait approximately two minutes before restarting the wizard.
An HP Jetdirect wireless print server with factory-default settings (ad hoc mode) is easily accessible by
unauthorized clients. Therefore, do not turn on a print server with factory default settings any longer
than necessary. Ensure that you verify any configuration settings.

Description
Select a network name that the HP Jetdirect print server connects to from the Existing
wireless network list, or, provide a network name in the Enter a Network Name field.
The network name is also called the service set identifier (SSID) and identifies the
extended service set (ESS) that is normally associated with larger infrastructure mode
networks. The print server lists the detected SSIDs.
An empty (or blank) SSID field is accepted, for example, on networks that rely on signal
strength, encryption and authentication methods to control network access.
The factory-default SSID configured on the HP Jetdirect print server is "hpsetup". To
initially communicate with the print server, your wireless computer's SSID must also be
"hpsetup".
NOTE: The SSID characters are case sensitive. Ensure you use the appropriate
lowercase or uppercase characters.
