Connecting with Wi-Fi Direct
You can connect to your printer from a Wi-Fi mobile device, such as a tablet, computer, or smart phone,
using Wi-Fi Direct. Wi-Fi Direct is disabled by default on the Xerox device.
Note:
Wi-Fi Direct is available only on printers with the optional Wireless Network Adapter installed.
Once the Wireless Network Adapter is installed, Wi-Fi Direct is enabled by default.

Wi-Fi Direct allows you to print directly from an Android-based mobile device to your printer by placing
your mobile device near the printer.
