Setting Up a Wireless
Network (WLAN) Manually
· Setting Up a Wireless Network (WLAN) Manually
Introduction
The PC and all other devices must have their parame-
ters set up to the same network as the multifunction
machine. All required information for setting the param-
eters, like name of the network (SSID), type of wireless
network, WEP key, IP address and subnet mask must
match the data from the network. You can obtain the
necessary information from the network configuration
of your computer or the access point (Access Point,
Router).
1. Press
C
,
0821
and
OK
.
2. Entering the SSID.
You can find the network name (Service Set ID) in
the network settings of your computer. The SSID
must match the SSID on the computer or on the ac-
cess point (Access Point, Router).
3. Confirm with
OK

4. Select an encryption standard or switch off network
security using

6. Enter the password for the network.
7. Confirm with
OK

With the connection mode, you set the IP address
and subnet mask. If you have a DHCP or BOOTP
server in your network which dynamically assign IP
addresses, you can assign the settings automatically.

Manual Configuration:
Enter the IP address (for
example 192.168.001.×××).

CAUTION!
Unprotected Wireless Networks

Unprotected Wireless Networks are Ac-
cessible to Others! Always protect your
network against unauthorised access. You
can toggle between different encryption
standards.
WEP Key
With 64-bit encryption, the WEP key must
be either 5 characters (ASCII) or 10 num-
bers (hexadecimal). With 128-bit encryp-
tion, the WEP key must be either 13
characters (ASCII) or 26 numbers (hexadec-
imal). You can find the WEP key in the net-
work settings of your PC.
WPA Key
Enter an 8 to 63 character long password.
The password can contain alphanumerical
characters—numbers and letters—and any
other symbol available on the keypad. The
only invalid character is "€” (the euro cur-
rency symbol).
This Process May Take a Few
Moments.
The automatic configuration of IP address
and subnet mask on the connected network
PCs may take a moment.
IP-Address
The first three blocks of numbers refer to
the IP field; this information must match the
IP address on your computer. The last three
digits determine are the individual IP address
of the device. You can enter any number be-
tween 000 and 255. However, this number
must be unique within the network; it may
not be used on any other PC or network
component.
Subnet Mask
In a network with a gateway or router, the
subnet mask indicates whether the respec-
tive data packets are addressed to an inter-
nal recipient in the network or whether they
should be sent to a recipient outside of the
network.
