Wi-Fi indicator light is blinking orange during
installation (Windows only)
When the Wi-Fi indicator light is blinking orange, it indicates that the printer has been set up for wireless
networking but cannot connect to the network for which it has been configured. The printer may be unable
to join the network because of interference, its distance from the wireless access point (wireless router),
or until its settings are changed.
These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following:
M
AKE
SURE
THE
ACCESS
POINT
IS
ON
Check the access point and, if necessary, turn it on.
M
OVE
YOUR
ACCESS
POINT
TO
MINIMIZE
INTERFERENCE
There may be temporary interference from other devices such as microwave ovens or other appliances,
cordless phones, baby monitors, and security system cameras. Make sure your access point is not
positioned too closely to these devices.
T
RY
ADJUSTING
EXTERNAL
ANTENNAS
Antennas usually work best if they are pointing straight up. You may find that reception improves if
you experiment with different angles for the printer and/or wireless access point antennas.
M
OVE
YOUR
PRINTER
Move the printer closer to the access point. Although the possible distance between devices in 802.11b
or 802.11g networks is 300 feet, the maximum range for optimal performance is generally 100–150 feet.
You can find the signal strength of the network on the network setup page.
