Connecting to a Network with a Wi-Fi Protected Setup
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a network standard for setting up a wireless network. The WPS protocols
allow you with no wireless network experience to set up devices in a secure wireless network. With a
WPS-certified router, you can use tools in the router and the printer to connect the printer to the
network. In order to use the tools, the wireless router must be configured properly and must be
compliant with the WPS.
•
Push Button Connection (PBC) is the easiest way to connect the printer to a wireless network. It
automatically connects when you push a button on the router and on the printer. After the router
and printer exchange information, the printer accepts the security and configuration information
from the router and connects to the network. The PBC is a moderately secure way to connect the
printer to the network. You do not need to enter any information to make the network connection.
•
PIN (Personal Identification Number) automatically connects the printer to wireless router by using
a common PIN. The printer generates and prints a PIN for use in the setup process. When you enter
the PIN into the router, the router broadcasts network information using the PIN. When both
devices recognize the PIN, the router provides the security and configuration information to the
printer, which uses it to connect to the network.
To connect to a WPS wireless network using the PBC method:
Note:
The wireless router must be connected and properly configured for the network before you
install the printer.
1.
On the wireless router, push the
PBC
button.
The router broadcasts setup information for 120 seconds.
Note:
If the wireless router does not have a physical PBC button, use your computer to select the
virtual button in the router control panel. For details, see your router documentation.
