USB Port
Using the USB cable, you can connect your device to a
PC that is connected to a network. Other PCs on this
network can then access the device if it is shared for use
on the network. You cannot connect the device directly
to a network with a USB cable, unless you have a USB
print server connection.
Networks
A WLAN adapter enables you to connect the device to
an existing network as a network printer. All computers
in the network can then access the device and scan or
print.

in the radio network is based on the standards 802.11b
and 802.11g.
