Network Connection
Methods
The printer can connect to a wired LAN or a wireless
LAN. Furthermore, it also supports Wi-Fi Direct
(Simple AP) which allows a smart device or other
device to directly connect wirelessly with the printer
even when there is no wired LAN or wireless LAN
environment.
The printer cannot connect to a wired LAN and
wireless LAN at the same time. A Wi-Fi Direct
connection is possible regardless of whether or not the
printer is connected to a network.
This section describes the procedures to use to switch
the connection method.
Note:
See the Administrator's Guide (online manual) for
details on the network settings.
