example.

rity risks, but want to share files without running
the wizard, click here”.

Click “Just enable file sharing” and click [OK].

box.

To change the name, click [Change] and
then proceed in accordance with the

To share a file and/or the connected
printer, you need to be logged in as an
administrator.

Setting the file-sharing function for the file
which has been used to execute Network
Setup Wizard is suggested on the screen.
For the wireless LAN, however, since
security is guaranteed by entry of the
network name (SSID) and the network
key, the steps to be taken to set the file-
sharing function easily without using
Network Setup Wizard are given below.

To specify the corresponding folder as a
read-only folder, select the [Read only]
checkbox under the General tab.
