Security Method
—There are three basic options for Security Method:
–
WEP key
If your network uses more than one WEP key, enter up to four in the provided spaces. Select the key currently
in use on the network by selecting the Default WEP Transmit Key.
or
–
WPA or WPA2 passphrase
WPA includes encryption as an additional layer of security. The choices are AES or TKIP. Encryption must be
set for the same type on the router and on the printer, or the printer will not be able to communicate on the
network.
–
No security
If your wireless network does not use any type of security, then you will not have any security information.
Note:
Using an unsecured wireless network is not recommended.
If you are installing the printer on an 802.1X network using the Advanced method, then you may need the following:
•
Authentication type
•
Inner authentication type
•
802.1X username and password
•
Certificates
Note:
For more information on configuring 802.1X security, see the
Networking Guide
on the
Software and
Documentation
CD.
Adding the printer to a network that uses MAC
address filtering
Every network device has a unique hardware identification number to distinguish it from other network devices. This
identification number is called the
Media Access Control
(MAC) address.
A list of MAC addresses can be set on a wireless router so that only those devices with matching MAC addresses can
join the network. This is called
MAC address filtering
. When installing the printer on a network that uses MAC address
filtering, be sure to add the printer MAC address to the list of addresses allowed by the wireless router. If this address
is not specifically allowed on the wireless network, then the printer will not work wirelessly.
If the printer has a factory-installed internal print server, then the MAC address is a series of letters and numbers
located on the MAC address sheet that came with the printer.
The MAC address appears in the following format:
00:04:12:34:56:78
Note:
Print a network setup page if you cannot locate the printer MAC address. It will appear on the network setup
page. For more information on printing a network setup page, see the
User's Guide
on the
Software and
Documentation
CD.
