To Begin: 

 
Power-up the Printer, Print Server and Host Computer. 
 
On the Host Computer, do the following: 
 
1)  Disable WEP if it is on. 
2)  Install the Printer Driver and Epson Direct Print Utility (This will force you to reboot 

the computer). 

3)  Install, then Launch WP-Admin and click the "Start" button to begin the search. 
 
 
 
On the EpsonNet 802.11b Print Server, do the following: 
 
1)  Push and hold in the RESET (Test/Factory) button for 10-20 seconds.  The print 

server will reset to the 802.11 INFRASTRUCTURE mode settings of the host 
computer running WP-Admin. This may take 2-3 minutes. 

 
2)  When the print server appears in the WP-Admin window, verify it is highlighted in the 

search window and click the CONFIGURE button.   

  When the PASSWORD box shows on screen, click OK without entering a 

password to continue.   

  When the CONFIGURATION screen appears, go to the “WEP KEY” section, 

down-click and select “WEP 64BITs” or “128BITs” from the drop-down button 
box. 

 
3)  Enter the encryption value in the “64Bit Key 1” box, for example 3132333435, or the 

“128bit Key 1” box, for example 31323334350000000000000000. 

 
      *** Important Note ***  If you forget to enter a value into the Key box and click OK to 
save the settings, you will not have any communications with the print server. To 
recover from this, go to the print server and repeat the restart procedure in step 1 
above. 
 
4)  In the “Wireless Mode” box, verify the selection is set to INFRASTRUCTURE. 
 
5)  Next, go to the “SSID” field and type in the SSID name of the Access Point.  

Example – Proxim 

 
6)  In the “Boot Method” drop-down button select STATIC (see Note), then go to the 

TCP/IP address fields and enter the appropriate address, subnet mask and gateway. 
Example - 
IP Address: 192.168.0.8  >>  8 for the printer
