Setting up network options (if applicable)

If you have a WiFi or Ethernet option card installed, you might need to reconfigure your

printer's setup to connect to the network. See “Setting up a WiFi option” on page 11 or “Setting

up an Ethernet option” on page 13 for instructions on setting up your network.

Setting up a WiFi option

The WiFi option for the Toshiba TCx Dual Station printer can be used as a network client or as

an access point. When using the WiFi option as a client, the printer connects to an existing WiFi

network. When using the WiFi option as an access point, the number of clients should be limited

to no more than two.
You can set up the WiFi option (connecting the client to a network or configuring the access

point) using one of the following options:
• “Setting up WiFi using a WiFi connection” on page 11

• “Setting up WiFi with a USB connection” on page 12
After completing setup, the printer will be accessible via the applicable network. Additional

configuration or setup changes can be accomplished via that network.

Setting up WiFi using a WiFi connection

To set up the WiFi option using a WiFi connection, complete the following steps.
1. Using the Toshiba 6145 printer offline functions (see Firmware offline tests and the Test/

Status Receipt), select the Network Configuration AP Mode option, and then the Select

Access Point Mode option. A random password will be generated and printed.
