About your printer
Thank you for choosing this printer!
We've worked hard to make sure it will meet your needs.
To start using your new printer right away, use the setup materials that came with the printer, and then skim the User’s
Guide to learn how to perform basic tasks. To get the most out of your printer, read the User’s Guide carefully, and
make sure you check the latest updates on our Web site.
We're committed to delivering performance and value with our printers, and we want to make sure you're satisfied. If
you do encounter any problems along the way, one of our knowledgeable support representatives will be delighted to
help you get back on track fast. And if you find something we could do better, please let us know. After all, you are the
reason we do what we do, and your suggestions help us do it better.
Minimizing your printer's environmental impact
We are committed to protecting the environment and are continually improving our printers to reduce their
environmental impact. By selecting certain printer settings or tasks, you may be able to reduce your printer's
environmental impact even further.
Conserving energy
•Activate Eco-Mode. This feature sets the screen brightness to low and sets the printer to change to Power Saver
mode after the printer is left idle for 10 minutes.
•Select the lowest Power Saver timeout. The Power Saver feature puts the printer in a minimum-power standby
mode after the printer has been idle for a set amount of time (the Power Saver timeout).
•Share your printer. Wireless/network printers allow you to share a single printer among multiple computers, thus
conserving energy and other resources.
Conserving paper
•Activate Eco-Mode. On selected printer models, this feature sets the printer to automatically print on both sides
of the paper (duplex) for copy and fax jobs, and for printing in Windows and Mac OS X 10.6 or later.
•Print more than one page image on one side of the paper. The “Pages per sheet” feature allows you to print
multiple pages on one sheet. You can print up to 8 page images on one side of a sheet of paper.
•Print on both sides of the paper. Duplexing lets you print on both sides of the paper manually or automatically
(depending on your printer model).
•Preview print jobs before printing. Use the preview features found in Toolbars, the Print or Print Preview dialog,
or the printer display (depending on your printer model).
•Scan and save. To avoid printing multiple copies, you can scan documents or photographs and save them to a
computer program, application, or flash drive for presentation.
•Use recycled paper.
About your printer
6
Conserving ink
•Use Quick Print or Draft Mode. These modes can be used to print documents using less ink than normal and are
ideal for printing documents that are mostly text.
•Use High Yield cartridges. Inks in High-Yield cartridges allow you to print more pages with fewer cartridges.
•Clean the printhead. Before replacing and recycling your ink cartridges, try using the “Clean Printhead” and “Deep
Clean Printhead” features. These features clean the printhead nozzles to improve the quality of your prints.
Recycling
•Return ink cartridges for reuse or recycling through the Lexmark Cartridge Collection Program. To return an ink
cartridge, go to www.lexmark.com/recycle. Follow the instructions to request a postage-paid bag.
•Recycle the product packaging.
•Recycle your old printer instead of throwing it away.
•Recycle paper from discarded print jobs.
•Use recycled paper.

•Make sure your original documents are in good condition.
•Make sure the application that receives the scanned document is appropriate. For example, if you are scanning a
photo to edit it, then make sure you choose a photo editing application to receive the scan. If you are scanning a
document to edit the text, then make sure you choose an OCR application.
•Use a high resolution.
How do I scan in black and white?
Color is the default for all scans. To scan in black and white, press the Color/Black button on the printer control panel
to switch from color to black and white.
Why am I being asked for a PIN?
PINs are a security measure used to restrict the scanned information from going into certain locations, or to keep what
is being scanned from being seen or used by others. You may be prompted to enter a PIN if the network computer you
are scanning to requires one.
To learn how PINs get assigned to network computers, see the Help for the printer software associated with your
operating system.

Installing the printer on a wireless network
Wireless network compatibility
Your printer contains an IEEE 802.11n wireless print server. Your printer is compatible with IEEE 802.11 b/g/n routers
that are Wi-Fi certified.
Supported network security options
The printer supports three wireless security options: no security, WEP, and WPA/WPA2.
No Security
It is not recommended to use no security at all on a home wireless network. Using no security means that anyone within
range of your wireless network can use your network resources—including Internet access, if your wireless network is
connected to the Internet. The range of your wireless network may extend far beyond the walls of your home, allowing
access to your network from the street or from your neighbors’ homes.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the most basic and the weakest type of wireless security. WEP security relies on a
series of characters called the WEP key.
Every device on the wireless network must use the same WEP key. WEP security can be used on both ad hoc and
infrastructure networks.
A valid WEP key has:
•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9
or
•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols found on a
keyboard.
WPA/WPA2
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) and WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) offer stronger wireless network security than WEP.
WPA and WPA2 are similar types of security. WPA2 uses a more complex encryption method and is more secure than
WPA. Both WPA and WPA2 use a series of characters, called the WPA pre-shared key or passphrase, to protect wireless
networks from unauthorized access.
A valid WPA passphrase has:
•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
•Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
Networking
63
Every device on the wireless network must use the same WPA passphrase. WPA security is an option only on
infrastructure networks with wireless access points and network cards that support WPA. Most newer wireless network
equipment also offers WPA2 security as an option.
Note: If your network uses WPA or WPA2 security, then select WPA Personal when you are prompted to select the
type of security your network uses.
Printing a network setup page
A network setup page lists the configuration settings of the printer, including the IP address and MAC address of the
printer.
1Load plain paper.
2From the printer control panel, press .
3Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Network Setup, and then press .
4Press to select Print Setup Page.
The network setup page prints.
Information you will need to set up the printer on a wireless network
To set up the printer for wireless printing, you need to know:
•The name of your wireless network. This is also known as the Service Set Identifier (SSID).
•If encryption was used to secure your network.
•The security key (either a WEP key or WPA passphrase) that allows other devices to communicate on the network
if encryption was used to secure your network.
You can locate your network WEP key or WPA passphrase by accessing your wireless access point or router and
checking the security information.
If your wireless access point (wireless router) is using Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security, the WEP key should be:
•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, punctuation, and symbols found on a
keyboard.
If your wireless access point is using Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security, the WPA passphrase should be:
•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
•Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A-F, a-f, and 0-9.
If your wireless network is not using security, then you will not have a security key.
Note: If you do not know the SSID of the network that your computer is connected to, launch the wireless utility of the
computer network adapter and look for the network name. If you cannot find the SSID or the security information for
your network, see the documentation that came with the wireless access point, or contact your system support person.

Configuring the printer wirelessly using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a method of configuring computers and printers on a secure wireless network. WPS is
faster than manual configuration, and it reduces typing errors when new devices are added to a wireless network. The
SSID and WPA passphrase are automatically detected and configured for you. The printer supports WPS and can be
configured for wireless access using WPS. In order to use WPS to configure the printer, the wireless router must also
support WPS.
If you want to use WPS to set up your printer, then insert the CD and follow the instructions on the computer screen.
Notes:
•To use WPS to configure the printer wirelessly, all of the devices on your wireless network must support WPS. If
any device on your network does not support WPS, then you must type the SSID and security information when
prompted.
•If you are using the PIN method to add your printer using WPS, make sure you type all eight digits when you are
asked to enter your PIN.

Networking FAQ
What is Wi-Fi Protected Setup?
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a simple and secure configuration that allows you to establish a wireless home network
and enable network security without requiring prior knowledge of Wi-Fi technology. It is no longer necessary to
configure the network name (SSID) and WEP key or WPA passphrase for network devices.
Note: WPS only supports networks that communicate through wireless access points (wireless routers).
The printer supports the following methods in connecting to a wireless network:
•Personal Identification Number (PIN)—A PIN on the printer is entered into the wireless settings of the wireless
access point.
•Push Button Configuration (PBC)—Buttons on both the printer and the wireless access point are pushed within a
given period of time.
Look for any of these identifier marks to check if your wireless access point is WPS certified:
You can find these WPS logos on the side, back, or top of your wireless access point.
For more information on accessing the wireless settings and determining the WPS capability of your wireless access
point, see the documentation that came with the wireless access point or contact your system support person.
Networking
74
Where do I find my WEP key or WPA passphrase?
To find the WEP key or WPA passphrase for the wireless network, view the security settings on the access point or
wireless router. Most access points have a Web page that can be accessed using a Web browser.
You can also check the manual that came with your access point or router. If your access point or router is using the
default settings, you can find the information in the manual. If someone else set up your network for you, that person
or company may have included the information in the manual.
If you do not know how to access the Web page, or if you do not have administrator access to the wireless access point
on your network, and are unable to locate the information in the manual, contact your system support person.
What is an SSID?
A Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name that identifies a wireless network. All devices on the network must know the
SSID of the wireless network or they will not be able to communicate with each other. Usually, the wireless network
broadcasts the SSID to allow wireless devices in the area to connect to it. Sometimes, the SSID is not broadcast for
security reasons.
If the SSID of your wireless network is not broadcast, it cannot be detected automatically and will not show up in the
list of available wireless networks. You must enter the network information manually in this situation.
An SSID can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
Where do I find my SSID?
You can find the SSID for the wireless network by viewing the settings on the access point or wireless router. Most
access points have a built-in Web server that can be accessed using a Web browser.
Many network adapters provide a software application that allows you to view the wireless settings of your computer,
including your SSID. Check your computer to see if a program was installed with your network adapter.
If you are unable to locate your SSID using either of these methods, contact your system support person.
What is a network?
A network is a collection of devices such as computers, printers, Ethernet hubs, wireless access points, and routers
connected together for communication through cables or through a wireless connection. A network can be wired,
wireless, or designed to have both wired and wireless devices.
Devices on a wired network use cables to communicate with each other.
Devices on a wireless network use radio waves instead of cables to communicate with each other. For a device to be
able to communicate wirelessly, it must have a wireless network adapter attached or installed that lets it receive and
transmit radio waves.
Networking
75
How do I find out what type of security my network is using?
You must know the WEP key or WPA passphrase and the type of security (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) used on the wireless
network. To obtain this information, see the documentation that came with your wireless access point (wireless router),
see the Web page associated with the wireless access point, or consult your system support person.
Note: The WEP key or WPA passphrase is not the same as the password for the wireless access point. The password
allows you to access the wireless access point settings. The WEP key or WPA passphrase allows printers and computers
to join your wireless network.
How are home networks configured?
For desktop computers, laptops, and printers to communicate with each other over a network, they must be connected
by cables and/or have wireless network adapters built in or installed in them.
There are many different ways a network can be set up. Four common examples appear below.
Note: The printers in the following diagrams represent printers with internal print servers built into them so that they
can communicate over a network.
Wireless network examples
Scenario 1: Mixed wired and wireless connections on a network with Internet access
•All computers and printers connect to the network through a router with Ethernet and wireless capabilities.
•Some computers and printers connect wirelessly to the router; others connect over a wired connection.
•The network is connected to the Internet through a DSL or cable modem.
Internet
Networking
76
Scenario 2: Wireless network with Internet access
•All computers and printers connect to the network using a wireless access point or wireless router.
•The wireless access point connects the network to the Internet through a DSL or cable modem.
Internet
Scenario 3: Wireless network with no Internet access
•Computers and printers connect to the network using a wireless access point.
•The network has no connection to the Internet.
Scenario 4: Computer connected wirelessly to a printer without Internet access
•A computer is directly connected to a printer without going through a wireless router.
•This configuration is referred to as an ad hoc network.
•The network has no connection to the Internet.
Note: Most computers can connect to only one wireless network at a time. If you access the Internet over a wireless
connection, you will lose Internet access if you are connected to an ad hoc network.
Why do I need an installation cable?
When setting up the printer on your wireless network, the printer will need to temporarily connect to a computer using
the installation cable. This temporary connection is used to set up the wireless settings of the printer.
Networking
77
The installation cable connects to a rectangular USB port on the installing computer and the square USB port on the
printer.
How do I attach the installation cable?
The installation cable attaches to a USB port on the computer and to the square connector on the back of the printer.
This connection allows you to configure the printer for a networked or locally attached installation.
1Attach the large, rectangular connector to any USB port on your computer. USB ports may be on the front or the
back of the computer, and may be horizontal or vertical.
2Attach the small, square connector to the printer.
3Continue following the on-screen instructions.
How are infrastructure and ad hoc networks different?
Wireless networks can operate in one of two modes: infrastructure or ad hoc.
In infrastructure mode, all devices on a wireless network communicate with each other through a wireless router
(wireless access point). Devices on the wireless network must have valid IP addresses for the current network and share
the same SSID and channel as the wireless access point.
In ad hoc mode, a computer with a wireless network adapter communicates directly with a printer equipped with a
wireless print server. The computer must have a valid IP address for the current network and be set to ad hoc mode.
The wireless print server must be configured to use the same SSID and channel that the computer is using.

The following table compares the characteristics and requirements of the two types of wireless networks.
Infrastructure Ad hoc
Characteristics
Communication Through wireless access point Directly between devices
Security More security options WEP or no security
Range Determined by range and number of
wireless access points
Restricted to range of individual
devices on network
Speed Usually faster Usually slower
Requirements for all devices
Unique IP address for each device Yes Yes
Mode set to Infrastructure mode Ad hoc mode
Same SSID Yes, including the wireless access
point
Yes
Same channel Yes, including the wireless access
point
Yes
We recommend setting up a network in infrastructure mode using the installation CD that came with the printer.
Infrastructure mode is the recommended setup method because it provides:
•Increased network security
•Increased reliability
•Faster performance
•Easier setup
Finding the signal strength
Wireless devices have built-in antennas that transmit and receive radio signals. The signal strength listed on the printer
network setup page indicates how strongly a transmitted signal is being received. Many factors can affect the signal
strength. One factor is interference from other wireless devices or other devices such as microwave ovens. Another
factor is distance. The farther two wireless devices are from each other, the more likely it is that the communication
signal will be weaker.
The strength of the signal received by your computer can also affect the connectivity of the printer with the network
during configuration. When you installed the wireless adapter in your computer, the adapter software probably placed
an icon in your system tray. Try double-clicking this icon, and it will tell you how strongly the computer is receiving the
wireless signal from the network.
To improve signal quality, remove sources of interference and/or move wireless devices closer to the wireless access
point (wireless router).
Networking
79
How can I improve wireless signal strength?
A common reason wireless printers fail to communicate over a network is poor wireless signal quality. If the signal is
too weak, too distorted, or blocked by an object, it cannot carry information between the access point and the printer.
To determine if the printer is receiving a strong signal from the access point, print a network setup page. The Quality
field indicates the relative strength of the wireless signal the printer is receiving. Drops in signal strength can be
intermittent, however, and although the signal quality appears high, it may drop during certain conditions.
If you think signal strength is a problem between your access point and the printer, try one or more of the following:
Notes:
•The solutions below are for infrastructure networks. If you are using an ad hoc network, adjust the computer when
the solution suggests adjusting the access point.
•Ad hoc networks have a much shorter range than infrastructure networks. Try moving the printer closer to the
computer if they seem to have trouble communicating.
MOVE THE PRINTER CLOSER TO THE WIRELESS ACCESS POINT/WIRELESS ROUTER
If the printer is too far away from the access point, it will not be able to communicate with other devices on the
network. For most indoor wireless networks, the maximum distance between the access point and the printer is
approximately 100 feet (30 meters). This distance could be longer or shorter, depending upon the layout of the
network and the limitations of the access point.
REMOVE OBSTACLES BETWEEN THE ACCESS POINT AND THE PRINTER
The wireless signal from your access point will pass through most objects. Most walls, floors, furniture and other
objects will not block the wireless signal. However, there are materials that are too dense for the signal to pass
through. Objects containing metal and concrete can block the signal. Arrange your printer and access point so that
the signal is not blocked by such objects.
REMOVE SOURCES OF INTERFERENCE
Other types of radio frequencies can cause problems with the wireless signal on your network. These sources of
interference can cause printing issues that seem to come and go. Turn off potential sources of interference where
possible. Avoid using microwaves and cordless phones when printing over your wireless network.
If another wireless network is operating in the vicinity, change the wireless channel on the access point.
Do not place your access point on a printer or other electronic device. Such devices can also interfere with the wireless
signal.
ARRANGE THE NETWORK TO REDUCE SIGNAL ABSORPTION
Even when the wireless signal is able to pass through an object, it is slightly weakened. If it passes through too many
objects, it can be significantly weakened. All objects absorb part of the wireless signal when it passes through them,
and certain types of objects absorb enough to cause communications problems. Place your access point as high in
the room as possible to avoid signal absorption.

How can I make sure my computer and printer are connected to the same wireless
network?
If the printer is not on the same wireless network as the computer, then you will not be able to print wirelessly. The
SSID of the printer must match the SSID of the computer, if the computer is already connected to the wireless network.
For Windows users
1Obtain the SSID of the network that the computer is connected to:
aType the IP address of your access point (wireless router) in the address field of your Web browser.
If you do not know the IP address of the access point:
1Click , or click Start and then click Run.
2In the Start Search or Run box, type cmd.
3Press Enter, or click OK.
4Type ipconfig, and then press Enter. Check the Wireless Network Connection section:
•The “Default Gateway” entry is typically the access point.
•The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.2.134.
bType the user name and password of the router when prompted.
cClick OK.
dIn the Wireless settings section, look for the SSID.
eWrite down the SSID.
Note: Make sure you copy it exactly, including any capital letters.
2Obtain the SSID of the network that the printer is connected to:
aFrom the printer, print a network setup page.
bIn the Wireless section, look for SSID.
3Compare the SSID of the computer and SSID of the printer.
If the SSIDs are the same, then the computer and the printer are connected to the same wireless network.
If the SSIDs are not the same, then run the utility again to set up the printer on the wireless network used by the
computer.
For Macintosh users with an AirPort base station
In Mac OS X version 10.5 or later
1From the Apple menu, navigate to:
System Preferences > Network > AirPort
The SSID of the network that the computer is connected to is displayed in the Network Name menu.
2Write down the SSID.
Networking
81
In Mac OS X version 10.4 or earlier
1From the Finder, navigate to:
Applications > Internet Connect > AirPort
The SSID of the network that the computer is connected to is displayed in the Network menu.
2Write down the SSID.
For Macintosh users with an access point
1Type the IP address of the access point in the address field of your Web browser and continue to step 2.
If you do not know the IP address of the access point, then do the following:
aFrom the Apple menu, navigate to:
System Preferences > Network > AirPort
bClick Advanced or Configure.
cClick TCP/IP.
The Router entry is typically the access point.
2Type your user name and password when prompted, and then click OK.
3In the Wireless settings section, look for the SSID.
4Write down the SSID, security type, and the WEP key/WPA passphrase (if shown).
Notes:
•Make sure you copy the network information down exactly, including any capital letters.
•Store the SSID and the WEP key or WPA passphrase in a safe place for future reference.
Can I use my printer on a USB and a network connection at the same time?
Yes, the printer supports a simultaneous USB and network connection. The printer can be configured in the following
ways:
•Locally attached (connected to a computer using a USB cable)
•Wireless network
•Wireless network and locally attached simultaneously
What is a MAC address?
A Media Access Control (MAC) address is a 48-bit identifier associated with the hardware of network equipment. The
MAC address may also be called the physical address because it is connected to the hardware of a device instead of its
software. The MAC address is displayed as a hexadecimal number in this format: 01-23-45-67-89-AB.
Every device capable of communicating on a network has a MAC address. Network printers, computers, and routers,
whether Ethernet or wireless, all have MAC addresses.
While it is possible to change the MAC address of a network device, it is not common practice to do so. For this reason,
MAC addresses are considered permanent. IP addresses are easily changed, so MAC addresses are a more reliable
method of identifying a specific device on a network.
Networking
82
Routers with security capabilities may allow filtering of MAC addresses on networks. This allows a managed list of
devices to access the network, identified by their MAC addresses. MAC address filtering can help prevent access on
the network from unwanted devices, such as from intruders on a wireless network. MAC address filtering can also
prevent legitimate access if you forget to add a new device to the router's list of allowed addresses. If your network
uses MAC address filtering, be sure to add the MAC address of the printer to the list of allowed devices.
How do I find the MAC address?
Most network equipment has a unique hardware identification number to distinguish it from other devices on the
network. This is called the Media Access Control (MAC) address.
When installing the printer on a network, make sure you select the printer with the correct MAC address.
The MAC address label is located inside the printer.
MAC:XX XX XX XX XX XX
The MAC address of the internal print server is a series of letters and numbers. Other devices sometimes use a type of
MAC address called Universally Administered Address (UAA).
MAC: XX XX XX XX XX XX
UAA: XX XX XX XX XX XX
Note: A list of MAC addresses can be set on an access point (router) so that only devices with matching MAC addresses
are allowed to operate on the network. This is called MAC filtering. If MAC filtering is enabled in your access point and
you want to add a printer to your network, then the MAC address of the printer must be included in the MAC filter list.
What is an IP address?
An IP address is a unique number used by devices (such as a wireless printer, computer, or wireless access point) on
an IP network to locate and communicate with each other. Devices on an IP network can communicate with each other
only if they have unique and valid IP addresses. A unique IP address means no two devices on the same network have
the same IP address.
An IP address is a group of four numbers separated by periods. An example of an IP address is 192.168.100.110.
Networking
83
What is TCP/IP?
Networks are able to function because computers, printers, and other devices are able to send data to each other,
either through cables or by using wireless signals. This transfer of data is made possible by sets of data transmission
rules called protocols. A protocol can be thought of as a language, and like a language, it has rules allowing participants
to communicate with each other.
Different types of networks use different protocols, but Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the
most popular. TCP/IP is used to send data over the Internet as well as over most corporate and home networks.
Because computers do not understand words and instead rely upon numbers for communication, TCP/IP requires that
every device on a network using TCP/IP to communicate must have an IP address. IP addresses are essentially unique
computer names in a numeric format, used to transfer data around a network. IP addresses allow TCP/IP to confirm
requests for and receipt of data by various devices on the network.
How do I locate IP addresses?
For Windows users
1Click , or click Start and then click Run.
2In the Start Search or Run box, type cmd.
3Press Enter, or click OK.
The Command Prompt window opens.
4Type ipconfig, and then press Enter.
The IP address appears as four sets of numbers separated by periods, such as 192.168.0.100.
For Macintosh users
1From the Apple menu, choose About This Mac.
2Click More Info.
3From the Contents pane, choose Network.
4If you are connected over a wireless network, choose AirPort from the Active Services list.
How to locate a printer IP address
•You can locate the printer IP address by viewing the printer network setup page.
How are IP addresses assigned?
An IP address may be assigned automatically by the network using DHCP. Once the printer is set up on a computer, the
computer sends all print jobs across the network to the printer using this address.
If the IP address is not automatically assigned, you will be asked during wireless setup to manually enter an address
and other network information after selecting your printer from the available list.
Networking
84
What is a key index?
A wireless access point (wireless router) can be configured with as many as four WEP keys. Only one key is used on the
network at a time, however. The keys are numbered, and the number of a key is referred to as its key index. All devices
on the wireless network must be configured to use the same key index when multiple WEP keys are configured on the
wireless access point.
Select the same key index on your printer as you are using on your wireless access point.

Wireless troubleshooting checklist
Before beginning to troubleshoot the wireless printer, verify the following:
•The printer, the computer, and the wireless access point are all plugged in and turned on.
•The wireless network is working properly.
Try accessing other computers on your wireless network.
If your network has Internet access, try connecting to the Internet over a wireless connection.
•Your SSID is correct.
Print a network setup page to verify the SSID the printer is using.
If you are not sure if your SSID is correct, then run the wireless setup again.
Troubleshooting
105
•Your WEP key or WPA passphrase is correct (if your network is secure).
Log into the wireless access point (wireless router) and check the security settings.
A security key is like a password. All devices on the same wireless network using WEP, WPA, or WPA2 share the
same security key.
If you are not sure if your security information is correct, run the wireless setup again.
•The printer and the computer are within the range of the wireless network.
For most networks, the printer and the computer should be within 100 feet (30 meters) of the wireless access point
(wireless router).
•The Wi-Fi indicator light is lit and is solid green.
•The printer driver is installed on the computer from which you are performing a task.
•The correct printer port is selected.
•The computer and printer are both connected to the same wireless network.
•The printer is located away from obstacles or electronic devices that could interfere with the wireless signal.
Make sure the printer and wireless access point are not separated by poles, walls, or support columns containing
metal or concrete.
Many devices can interfere with the wireless signal, including baby monitors, motors, cordless phones, security
system cameras, other wireless networks, and some Bluetooth devices.
Resetting the wireless settings to factory defaults

> Demo Mode > Off > save the setting
CHECK YOUR WEP KEY OR WPA PASSPHRASE
If your access point is using WEP security, then the WEP key should be:
•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard. ASCII
characters in a WEP key are case-sensitive.
If your access point is using WPA or WPA2 security, then the WPA passphrase should be:
•Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard. ASCII
characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.

Club Internet may require you to press an association/registration button when adding the printer to your wireless
network.
If you are using one of these boxes and need more information, then see the documentation that came with your
box, or contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
MOVE YOUR ACCESS POINT AWAY FROM OTHER ELECTRONIC DEVICES
There may be temporary interference from electronic devices such as microwave ovens or other appliances, cordless
phones, baby monitors, and security system cameras. Make sure your access point is not positioned too closely to
these devices.
MOVE THE COMPUTER AND/OR PRINTER CLOSER TO THE ACCESS POINT
The range of your wireless network depends on many factors, including the abilities of your access point and network
adapters. If you are having trouble printing, then try placing the computer and printer no more than 100 feet apart.
CHECK THE WIRELESS SIGNAL QUALITY
Print a network setup page and check the signal quality. If the signal quality is listed as good or excellent, then another
factor is causing the problem.
Troubleshooting
107
CHECK YOUR ADVANCED SECURITY SETTINGS
•If you are using MAC (Media Access Control) address filtering to limit access to your wireless network, then you
must add the printer MAC address to the list of addresses allowed to connect to the access point.
•If you set the access point to issue a limited number of IP addresses, then you must change this so that the printer
can be added.
Note: If you do not know how to make these changes, then see the documentation that came with the access point,
or contact the person who set up your wireless network.
MAKE SURE YOUR COMPUTER IS CONNECTED TO YOUR ACCESS POINT
•See if you have access to the Internet by opening your Web browser and accessing any site.
•If there are other computers or resources on your wireless network, then check to see if you can access them
from your computer.
MAKE SURE THAT YOUR COMPUTER AND PRINTER ARE CONNECTED TO THE SAME WIRELESS NETWORK

Wi-Fi indicator light is still orange
When the Wi-Fi indicator light is orange, it may indicate that the printer is:
•Not configured in infrastructure mode
•Waiting to make an ad hoc connection to another wireless device
•Not connected to a wireless network
The printer may be unable to join the network because of interference, its distance from the wireless access point
(wireless router), or until its settings are changed.
These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
CHECK NETWORK NAME
Make sure your network does not have the same name as another network near you. For example, if you and your
neighbor both use a manufacturer's default network name, your printer could be connecting to your neighbor's
network.
If you are not using a unique network name, consult the documentation for your wireless access point (wireless
router) to learn how to set a network name.
If you set a new network name, you must reset the printer and computer SSID to the same network name.
CHECK SECURITY KEYS
If you are using WEP security
A valid WEP key is:
•Exactly 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A–F, a–f, and 0–9.
or
•Exactly 5 or 13 ASCII characters. ASCII characters are letters, numbers, and symbols found on a keyboard.
If you are using WPA security
A valid WPA passphrase is:
•From 8 to 63 ASCII characters. ASCII characters in a WPA passphrase are case-sensitive.
or
•Exactly 64 hexadecimal characters. Hexadecimal characters are A-F, a-f, and 0-9.
If your wireless network is not using security, then you will not have a security key. Using a wireless network with no
security is not recommended because it can allow intruders to use your network resources without your consent.
MOVE THE COMPUTER AND/OR PRINTER CLOSER TO THE WIRELESS ACCESS POINT (WIRELESS ROUTER)
The possible distance between devices in 802.11b or 802.11g networks is 300 feet, while the wireless network range
potentially doubles in 802.11n networks. The range of your wireless network depends on many factors, including
the abilities of your router and network adapters. If you are having trouble printing, try placing the computer and
printer no more than 100 feet apart.
You can find the strength of the network signal on the printer network setup page.
Troubleshooting
113
CHECK MAC ADDRESS
If your network uses MAC address filtering, make sure that you include the MAC address of the printer in the MAC
address filter list. This will allow the printer to operate on the network.

How to locate a printer IP address
•You can locate the printer IP address by viewing the printer network setup page.
If the printer and/or the laptop does not have an IP address, or if either has an address of 169.254.x.y (where x and
y are any two numbers between 0 and 255):
1Turn off the device that does not have a valid IP address (the laptop, the printer, or both).
2Turn on the device(s).
3Check the IP addresses again.
If the laptop and/or printer still does not receive a valid IP address, there is a problem with your wireless network.
Try the following:
•Make sure your wireless access point (wireless router) is turned on and is working.
•Remove any objects that could be blocking the signal.
•Temporarily turn off any unnecessary wireless devices on your network and pause any network-intensive
activities, like large file transfers or network games. If the network is too busy, it is possible that the printer is
not receiving the IP address within the allowed time.
•Make sure your DHCP server, which may also be your wireless router, is working and is configured to assign IP
addresses. If you are not sure how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your wireless router for more
information.
If the printer and computer have valid IP addresses and the network is operation correctly, continue troubleshooting.

Communication with printer lost when connected to Virtual Private Network (VPN)
You will lose your connection to a wireless printer on your local network when connected to most Virtual Private
Networks (VPNs). Most VPNs allow users to communicate with only the VPN and no other network at the same time.
If you would like to have the ability to connect to your local network and to a VPN at the same time, the system support
person for the VPN must enable split tunneling. Be aware that some organizations will not allow split tunneling due to
security or technical concerns.
Resolving intermittent wireless communications issues
You may notice that your printer works for a short time and then stops working, although apparently nothing has
changed on your wireless network.
Many different issues can interrupt network communications, and sometimes more than one problem exists at the
same time. These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
DISCONNECT FROM ALL VPNS WHEN ATTEMPTING TO USE THE WIRELESS NETWORK
Most Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) allow computers to communicate with only the VPN and no other network at
the same time. Disconnect from the VPN before installing the driver on the computer or before running the wireless
setup on the computer.
To check if the computer is currently connected to a VPN, open your VPN Client software and check your VPN
connections. If you do not have a VPN Client software installed, check the connections manually using the Windows
VPN Client.
If you would like to have the ability to connect to your local network and to a VPN at the same time, the system
support person for the VPN must enable split tunneling. Be aware that some organizations will not allow split
tunneling due to security or technical concerns.
TURN OFF THE WIRELESS ACCESS POINT (WIRELESS ROUTER) AND TURN IT BACK ON AGAIN
ELIMINATE NETWORK CONGESTION
If a wireless network is too busy, the computer and printer may have difficulty communicating with each other. Some
causes of wireless network congestion can include:
•Transferring large files across the network
•Networked games
•Peer-to-peer file swapping applications
Troubleshooting
120
•Streaming video
•Too many computers on the wireless network at once
ELIMINATE SOURCES OF INTERFERENCE
Common household items can potentially disrupt wireless network communications. Cordless phones (but not
cellular phones), microwave ovens, baby monitors, almost any kitchen appliance, wireless surveillance equipment,
nearby wireless networks, and any appliance containing a motor can disrupt wireless network communications.
Try turning on any potential sources of interference and see if it causes the problem. If it does, separate your wireless
network from the device.
CHANGE THE CHANNEL THE WIRELESS ROUTER USES
You can sometimes eliminate interference from unknown sources by changing the channel your wireless router uses
to broadcast. There are three distinct channels on a router. Check the documentation that came with your router to
determine which three apply. Other channels are offered as options, but these overlap. If the router is configured
to use the default settings, change the channel setting to use a different distinct channel. Refer to the manual that
came with your wireless router if you are not sure how to change the channel.
CONFIGURE THE WIRELESS ROUTER WITH A UNIQUE SSID
Many wireless networks use the SSID that the router was originally configured by the manufacturer to use. Using
the default SSID can cause problems when more than one network is operating in the same area with the same SSID.
The printer or computer may attempt to attach to the wrong network, although it will appear to be trying to connect
to the correct network.
To avoid this type of interference, change the SSID on your wireless router from the default. Refer to the manual
that came with your router if you are not sure how to change the SSID.
Note: You must change the SSID on all of the other devices that access your wireless network if you change the SSID
on the router.
ASSIGN STATIC IP ADDRESSES TO ALL DEVICES IN THE NETWORK
Most wireless networks use a DHCP server (dynamic host configuration protocol) built in to the wireless router to
assign IP addresses to clients on the wireless network. DHCP addresses are assigned when they are needed, as when
a new device is added to the wireless network or when it is powered on. Wireless devices must send a request to
the router, and receive an IP address in response so they can function on the network. Because the router performs
many other tasks besides assigning addresses, it sometimes does not respond quickly enough with an address. The
requesting device sometimes gives up before it receives an address.
Try assigning static IP addresses to the devices in your network to resolve this issue. Static IP addresses cut down on
the work your wireless router has to do. Refer to the manual that came with your router and your operating system
documentation if you are not sure how to assign static IP addresses.
To assign a static IP address to the printer, do the following:
1Complete the wireless setup, allowing the printer to receive a DHCP address from a DHCP server on the network.
2Print a network setup page to see what IP address is currently assigned to the printer.
3Open a Web browser and then type the printer IP address in the address field. Press Enter.
The printer Web page loads.
Troubleshooting
121
4Click the Configuration link.
5Click the TCP/IP link.
6Click the Set Static IP Address link.
7Type the IP address you want to assign to the printer in the IP Address field.
8Click the Submit button.
The Submitting Selection message appears.
Confirm that the IP address is updated by typing the static IP address in the browser address field and checking to
see if the printer Web page reloads.
CHECK FOR KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE WIRELESS ROUTER
Some wireless routers have documented defects that were identified and resolved by the manufacturers. Visit the
company Web site of the router manufacturer. Check for firmware updates and other advice from the manufacturer.
Check the manual that came with your wireless router if you are not sure how to reach the manufacturer Web site.
CHECK FOR WIRELESS ADAPTER UPDATES
If you are having trouble printing from one particular computer, check the Web site of the manufacturer of the
network adapter card in that computer. It is possible that there is an updated driver available that could resolve the
issue.
CHANGE ALL NETWORK DEVICES TO THE SAME TYPE
While it is possible to successfully mix 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n devices on the same wireless network, the
faster devices will sometimes prevent the slower devices from communicating. Wireless devices are designed to wait
for a gap in wireless network communications before attempting to send information. If newer, faster devices are
constantly using the wireless network, then older, slower devices will not have a chance to send data.
Try only turning on the network devices of the same type and see if network communications improve. If this solves
the problem, you may want to upgrade your older devices with newer network adapters.
PURCHASE A NEW ROUTER
If your router is several years old, it may not be fully compatible with the newer wireless devices on your network.
Consider purchasing a newer router that is fully compliant with the 802.11 IEEE specifications.
