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. • Print more than one page image on one side 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 dialog, or the printer display. • 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.

Set Auto Answer to On if you want the printer to receive faxes automatically. If the printer is connected to the same telephone line with an answering machine, then you must set Auto Answer to On so that you can receive both your voice calls and your faxes. Make sure that the answering machine is set to pick up on fewer rings than the rings set in the printer. This lets the other devices pick up the voice calls first. If an incoming call is a fax, the printer can detect fax signals on the line and takes the call. v10249422 - AESTOQUI How many rings should I set? If the printer is sharing a line with an answering machine, then set the printer to pick up on the greater number of rings. Because you have only one line, there is no way of distinguishing a voice call from an incoming fax. You can set the number of rings so that the answering machine takes the voice calls and the printer takes the incoming faxes. If you set the other devices to pick up on fewer rings, then the devices pick up calls first, and your voice calls are received. If a call is a fax, then the printer can detect it and will take over the call. If the printer is on a dedicated fax line, then you may set the printer to pick up on any number of rings that you want. v10016819 - AESTOQUI How do I set the distinctive ring for the printer? Setting the correct ring is important if you subscribe to the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) feature offered by telephone companies. This feature allows you to have multiple telephone numbers on one telephone line. Each telephone number has a designated ring pattern (a single ring, a double ring, a triple ring). The different ring patterns let you know what telephone number was dialed, and what device you should use to answer the call. Assign one of your telephone numbers to the printer as the fax number, and then set the printer to answer the ring pattern of that number.

For example, if the answering machine picks up calls after four rings, then set the printer to pick up after five rings. This way, the answering machine picks up calls first and your voice calls are received. If the call is a fax, then the printer detects the fax signal on the line and takes over the call. v9749415 - AESTOQUI What settings work best with digital voice mail? Voice mail and fax can share the same telephone line if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service. This feature allows you to have multiple telephone numbers on one telephone line. Each telephone number has a designated ring pattern (a single ring, a double ring, a triple ring). The different ring patterns let you know which telephone number was dialed, and which device you should use to answer the call. If you do not have distinctive ring service, then set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off). This setting lets you receive both voice calls and fax calls, but works best if you use voice mail more often. You need to turn off voice mail whenever you are expecting a fax. v10644004 - AESTOQUI How do I change the resolution of the documents that I fax? The resolution, or fax quality, of the documents that you send may affect fax transmission. The receiving fax machine may not support high resolutions and may not be able to receive your fax.

Your printer is compatible with IEEE 802.11 b/g/n routers that are Wi-Fi certified. v11222789 - JROSENBE 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 (Wireless 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 94 Lexmark Confidential until announced 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. v11792758 - JLABRA 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. 1 Load plain paper. 2 From the printer control panel, press 3 Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Network Setup, and then press 4 Press to select Print Setup Page. The network setup page prints. v8002212 - JROSENBE 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.

Networking FAQ v9574876 - JLABRA What is Wi-Fi Protected Setup? Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a product certification that provides simple and secure configuration. WPS assists users in establishing wireless home networks and enabling network security without requiring prior knowledge of Wi-Fi technology. WPS configures the network name (SSID) and WPA passphrase for network devices. WPS only supports networks that communicate through access points or routers and is not applicable in ad hoc networks. We support the following methods in adding new wireless network devices: • Personal Identification Number (PIN)—A PIN from the new device is entered into the access point. • Push Button Configuration (PBC)—The user pushes a button on both the access point and the new device. Look for any of these identifier marks to check if your device is WPS certified: You can find these WPS logos on the side, back, or top of your access point or router. v10328494 - JROSENBE 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. Networking 109 Lexmark Confidential until announced v8022815 - JROSENBE 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. v7963057 - JROSENBE 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. v10999244 - JROSENBE 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. v7687179 - AESTOQUI 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. v8002222 - JROSENBE 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. Five common examples appear below. Note: The printers in the following diagrams represent printers with internal print servers built in to them so that they can communicate over a network. Networking 110 Lexmark Confidential until announced Wired network example • A desktop computer, a laptop, and a printer are connected by Ethernet cables to a hub, router, or switch. • The network is connected to the Internet through a DSL or cable modem. 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. Networking 111 Lexmark Confidential until announced 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. 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 connect to an ad hoc network. v5771334 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 112 Lexmark Confidential until announced The installation cable connects to a rectangular USB port on the installing computer and the square USB port on the printer. v7473254 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. 1 Attach 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. 2 Attach the small, square connector to the printer. 3 Continue following the on-screen instructions. v9648335 - JLABRA 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. Networking 113 Lexmark Confidential until announced The following table compares the characteristics and requirements of the two types of wireless networks. Infrastructure Ad hoc Communication Through wireless access point Directly between devices Security More security options WEP or no security Range Determined by range and number of Restricted to range of individual wireless access points devices on network Speed Usually faster Usually slower 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 Characteristics Requirements for all devices 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 v6827934 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 114 Lexmark Confidential until announced v10999262 - JROSENBE 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. Networking 115 Lexmark Confidential until announced v10620578 - JROSENBE 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, you will not be able to print wirelessly.

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 Ethernet network Wireless network and locally attached simultaneously Ethernet network and locally attached simultaneously v7473218 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. Networking 117 Lexmark Confidential until announced 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. 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. v10250478 - JLABRA 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. 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). 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. Networking 118 Lexmark Confidential until announced v6677049 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. v6677687 - JROSENBE 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. v10418701 - JROSENBE How do I locate IP addresses? For Windows users 1 Click , or click Start and then click Run. 2 In the Start Search or Run box, type cmd. 3 Press Enter, or click OK. The Command Prompt window opens. 4 Type 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 1 From the Apple menu, choose About This Mac. 2 Click More Info. 3 From the Contents pane, choose Network. 4 If 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. Networking 119 Lexmark Confidential until announced v7486827 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. v7901898 - JROSENBE 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.

Troubleshooting 158 Lexmark Confidential until announced v10431523 - JROSENBE 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 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. Troubleshooting 159 Lexmark Confidential until announced 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: 1 Complete the wireless setup, allowing the printer to receive a DHCP address from a DHCP server on the network. 2 Print a network setup page to see what IP address is currently assigned to the printer. 3 Open a Web browser and then type the printer IP address in the address field. Press Enter. The printer Web page loads. 4 Click the Configuration link. 5 Click the TCP/IP link. 6 Click the Set Static IP Address link. 7 Type the IP address you want to assign to the printer in the IP Address field. 8 Click 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. Troubleshooting 160 Lexmark Confidential until announced 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.
