Wireless networking

Finding more information about the printer

The Network Getting Started Guide helps you add the printer to your wireless network and troubleshoot basic

networking problems.

For additional networking information or other information about the printer, see the comprehensive User's Guide

available in your printer program folder, on the installation software CD, or on our Web site at

www.lexmark.com/publications/.

To access the printer program folder:

For Windows users

1Click or Start.

2Click All Programs or Programs, and then select the printer program folder from the list.

3Select View User's Guide.

For Macintosh users

1From the Finder desktop, double-click the printer folder.

2Double-click User's Guide.

Information you will need to set up the printer on a

wireless network

To successfully configure the printer wirelessly, you must begin with a computer that is connected to the wireless

network where you want to install the printer. You will need the network SSID (also called the Network Name or

Service Set ID)

Different wireless networks require different security information. While not recommended, some wireless networks

are not secure and have no security information. Select No security if your network is not secure.

If your wireless network is secure, you may need the following information:

•WEP key(s)—Required for WEP security

•WPA/WPA2 passphrase—Required for WPA and WPA2 security. If your network uses WPA or WPA2 security,

choose WPA Personal during installation.

Note: The network WEP key and WPA passphrase are not the same as the password for the wireless access point

(wireless router). The password allows you to access the wireless access point settings, while the WEP key or WPA

passphrase allows printers and computers to join your wireless network.

Note: Make sure you copy down the security key and SSID exactly, including any capital letters, and store it in a safe

place for future reference. Use the space provided below to write down this information.

Wireless networking

Item Description

SSID (name of your wireless network)

Security key (WEP key or WPA passphrase)

You must know your security information. You cannot configure the printer for a secure wireless network without

security information.

This information is unique to your network, and you or your system support person must provide this information

to complete the wireless printer configuration. Contact your system support person if you are unsure of the type of

security used on your network or if you do not know the settings.

Installing the printer on a wireless network

Before you install the printer on a wireless network, make sure that:

•Your wireless network is set up and working properly.

•The computer you are using is connected to the same wireless network where you want to set up the printer.

For Windows users

1Close all open software programs.

2Insert the installation software CD.

If the Welcome screen does not appear after a minute, then launch the CD manually:

aClick , or click Start and then click Run.

bIn the Start Search or Run box, type D:\setup.exe, where Dis the letter of your CD or DVD drive.

3Follow the instructions on the Welcome screen to set up the printer.

For Macintosh users

1Close all open software applications.

2Insert the installation software CD.

If the installation dialog does not appear after a minute, then click the CD icon on the desktop.

3Double-click Install.

4Follow the instructions on the installation dialog to set up the printer.

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.

Wireless networking

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.

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.

Installing the printer on other computers

Once the printer is set up on the wireless network, it can be accessed wirelessly by any other computer on the network.

However, you will need to install the printer driver on every computer that will access it. You do not need to configure

the printer again, although you will need to run the setup software on each computer to install the driver.

For Windows users

1Close all open software programs.

2Insert the installation software CD.

If the Welcome screen does not appear after a minute, then launch the CD manually:

aClick , or click Start and then click Run.

bIn the Start Search or Run box, type D:\setup.exe, where Dis the letter of your CD or DVD drive.

3Follow the instructions on the computer screen for installing a configured printer on a new computer.
