Wireless Network
If your environment includes a wireless router or wireless access point, you can connect the printer
to the network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connection provides the same access
and services as a wired connection. A wireless network connection is typically faster than USB and
allows direct access to the settings of the printer using the Embedded Web Server.
Connecting to a Computer Using USB
To connect using USB, you need one of these operating systems:
• Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008, Windows 10, Windows Server2008 R2, and Windows
Server 2012.
• Macintosh OS X version 10.10 and later.
Note
Your printer supports connection to various UNIX platforms, including Linux, through the network
interface.
For more information, see Installing the Software .
To connect the printer to the computer using a USB cable:
1. Connect the B end of a standard A/B USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 cable to the USB Port on the back of the
printer.
2. Connect the A end of the USB cable to the USB port on the computer.
3. If the Windows Found New Hardware Wizard appears, press Cancel.
4. Install the print driver.
Connecting to a Wired Network
1. Ensure that the printer is powered off.
2. Attach a Category 5 or better Ethernet cable from the printer to the network or router socket. Use
an Ethernet switch or router, and two or more Ethernet cables. Connect the computer to the switch
or router with one cable, then connect the printer to the switch or router with the second cable.
Connect to any port on the switch or router except the uplink port.
3. Attach the power cord, then plug in the printer and power it on.
4. Set the network IP printer address, or set up the printer for automatic printer IP detection. For more
information, refer to the System Administrator Guide at

Connecting to a Wireless Network
A wireless local area network (WLAN) provides the means to connect 2 or more devices in a LAN without
a physical connection. The printer can connect to a wireless LAN that includes a wireless router or wireless
access point. Before connecting the printer to a wireless network, the wireless router must be configured
with a service set identifier (SSID) and any necessary credentials.
Note
Wireless networking is available only on printers with the optional Wireless Network Adapter installed.
