Use the Advanced wireless setup if:
You know your network information and want to enter it quickly.
You are configuring the printer for a remote network that you cannot access from the location where you are configuring it.
The network does not broadcast its SSID.
You are configuring a printer for a wireless network that uses 802.1X authentication.
From the Advanced Setup dialog, enter the necessary wireless information for the following:
Wireless Mode
Network Name (SSID)
Channel
Authentication
Encryption
If the type of security you select requires a certificate, and you do not have a certificate, then do the following:
Click Create Certificate Request.
Fill in the required information.
Note: | Make sure you know where the created certificate is saved. The certificate is not valid until it is signed, however; ask your system support person about the process your organization uses for obtaining signed certificates. |
Configure the authentication and encryption.
If you selected 802.1X - RADIUS, then click Configure Authentication.
If you selected Open Mode, Shared Mode, WPA Personal or WPA2-Enterprise, then click Configure Encryption.
Follow the instructions on the computer screen.
Note: | If the printer is not able to connect to your wireless network, then check your wireless settings or use a different connection type. For more information, see the troubleshooting chapter. |
