Connecting via Wireless LAN

The machine and computer are connected via a wireless LAN router. A LAN cable is not required because wireless communications (radio waves) are used to connect the machine and the router.

NOTE
The machine does not come with a wireless LAN router. Have it ready as necessary. The wireless router must conform to IEEE 802.11b/g/n and be able to communicate in 2.4 GHz bandwidth. For more information, see the instruction manual provided with the router, or contact your manufacturer. The machine cannot connect to both wired and wireless LANs at the same time. When using a wireless LAN connection, do not connect a LAN cable to the machine. Doing so may cause a malfunction. If using the machine in your office, consult your Network Administrator.
