If your wireless access point supports either SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup (PBC
) or AOSS™
(one-push method), you can configure the machine easily without a computer. Your Brother machine has the
SES/WPS/AOSS™ menu on the control panel. This feature automatically detects which mode your access
point uses, SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup or AOSS™. By pushing a button on the wireless
access point/router and the machine, you can setup the wireless network and security settings. See the user’s
guide for your wireless access point/router for instructions on how to access one-push mode. (For more

settings. See the user’s guide for your wireless access point/router for instructions on how to access the
