Installing the Wireless LAN option

This section explains how to install the wireless LAN option.

Important

  • Before using the option, you must configure settings from the control panel. For details, see Setup Guide.

  • Before beginning work, ground yourself by touching something metal to discharge any static electricity. Static electricity can damage the interface units.

  • Do not subject the interface units to physical shocks.

  • Be sure to turn off the machine before installing the wireless LAN option.

  • Insert the wireless LAN option into the USB port on the back of the machine. Do not insert it into the USB flash memory device port of the front of the machine.

  • We recommend installing the printer driver on your computer after completing the configuration for the wireless LAN option.

Note

  • Check that the wireless LAN option was correctly installed by printing the configuration page. If it is correctly installed, "Wireless (Wi-Fi) Status" will appear for "Network Settings" on the configuration page. For details about printing the configuration page, see Printing Lists/Reports.

  • If the option was not installed properly, repeat the procedure from the beginning. If it cannot be installed correctly even after trying the installation a second time, contact your sales or service representative.
