Changes to Networks
(Ver. 2.04-)Support for Using the Wireless LAN on the Main Line
You can now use the wireless LAN on the main line when the machine is connected to two different networks at the same time.
Selecting the Network Connection Method
(Settings/Register) 
<Preferences> <Network> <Select Interface> select the interface <OK> |
When <Main Line> or <Sub Line> is set to <Wireless LAN>If you change the settings from <Main Line> to <Sub Line> or from <Sub Line> to <Main Line>, the previous wireless LAN connection settings will be cleared, so you must reconnect to the wireless LAN. When <Main Line> or <Sub Line> is set to <Wired LAN>Set <Sleep Mode Energy Use> to <High>. When <Main Line> is set to <Wireless LAN>, and <Sub Line> is set to <Wired LAN>The wired LAN connected to the LAN port on the machine becomes the sub line. The wired LAN connected to the machine via a USB-LAN adapter cannot connect using the sub line. |
 Connecting mobile devices directly to the machine |
<Access Point Mode> can only be selected for <Direct Connection Type> if the machine is connected to a wireless LAN. Connect the machine to a wireless LAN or select something other than <Wireless LAN> for <Main Line> and <Sub Line>. If <Wireless LAN> is selected for <Main Line> or <Sub Line> in <Select Interface>, <Wi-Fi Direct> cannot be used in <Direct Connection Type>. |
