WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access points using
TKIP or AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA2-PSK (AES) and WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more
characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.

The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know
this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value that
must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.

press 1 for Reset and then choose 1 for Yes to accept the change. The machine will restart automatically.

you are sure that you can print, configure the software settings following the instructions.
• You need to temporarily use an Ethernet cable during configuration. (The Ethernet cable is not a standard
accessory.)
