In the case of using WPA on a network, activate the WPA setting to be used for communication along with WPA. Consult your network administrator for information about making authentication settings.
For setting WPA, installing the optional Hard disk is required.
Press the [Menu] key.
Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select [Host Interface], and then press the [OK] key.
Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select [Wireless LAN], and then press the [OK] key.

Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select encryption method, and then press the [OK] key.
Consult your network administrator for information about making encryption settings.
Encryption settings are as follows:
[TKIP]
Uses the same algorithm as RC4, but further reduces vulnerability using methods such as key mixing.
[CCMP(AES)]
Increases security using AES (Advanced Encryption Standard).
The display returns to the [WPA] menu.
Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select [Authentication Method], and then press the [OK] key.
Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select authentication settings, and then press the [OK] key.
Authentication settings are as follows:
[WPA-PSK]
Performs authentication using an encryption key (a Pre-Shared Key) that is shared by the access point and client.
[WPA]
WPA uses CA certificates and a RADIUS server to provide secure wireless communication.
[WPA2-PSK]
As with WPA-PSK, authenticate using the encryption key (a Pre-Shared Key) shared by the access point and client. Enter Pre-Shared Key using between 8 and 63 ASCII characters.
[WPA2]
WPA2 is an expanded version of WPA that fully supports IEEE 802.11i.
Wait for two seconds, the display returns to the [WPA] menu.
If [WPA] or [WPA2] is selected in step 9, a confirmation message appears. Press [OK].
Wait for two seconds. The display returns to the [WPA] menu, proceed to step 15.
If [WPA-PSK] or [WPA2-PSK] is selected in step 9, a confirmation message appears. Press [Enter].
Enter the Pre-Shared Key, and then press [Accept].
When entering a character, pressing [OK] will mask it with an asterisk for security reasons.
Enter the Pre-Shared Key using between 8 and 63 ASCII characters.
Uppercase and lowercase letters are differentiated, so be sure to enter characters in the required case.
Wait for two seconds. The display returns to the [Authentication Method] menu.
Press the [Escape] key.
Press [Exit].
Press the [ ] or [ ] key to select [WPA], and then press the [OK] key.
Press the [Menu] key to return to the initial screen.
Print a configuration page to confirm the settings.
