Notes on Network Connection
• The configuration, router functions, setup procedures and security settings of
the network device vary depending on your system environment. For details,
refer to your device's instruction manual or contact its manufacturer.
• In an office setup, consult your network administrator
• If you connect to a network that is not protected with security measures, there
is a risk of disclosing data such as your personal information to a third party.
• Place the machine and computer on the same network segment.
An "Ad-hoc connection," which establishes a direct
connection to the computer over a wireless connection
without using an access point, is not supported.

Software Installation
To use the machine by connecting it to a computer, software including the drivers needs to be copied (installed) to the computer's hard disk.
Installation time varies depending on the computer environment or the number of application software to be installed.
