Creating an ad hoc wireless network
You can set up an ad hoc network if you:
•
Do not have an access point or wireless router
• Do not have a wireless network (but do have a wireless network adapter for your computer)
• Want to set up a standalone network between the printer and a computer with a wireless network adapter
Notes:
•
Before you begin, make sure your wireless network adapter is properly attached to your computer and is working.
•
The recommended way to set up your wireless network is to use an access point (wireless router). This network
setup is called
infrastructure network .
• If your computer has MyWi-Fi or Wi-Fi Direct , then you can create direct connections to your wireless printer. For
more information, see the documentation that came with your computer.
•
The printer can communicate on only one wireless network at a time. Configuring the printer for an ad hoc wireless
network will keep it from working on any other wireless network, either ad hoc or infrastructure.
