Connecting via Wireless LAN
Connect the printer to a computer via a wireless router. The printer and the router are connected wirelessly (via radio waves), so you do
not need a LAN cable. To make wireless LAN settings, use the MF/LBP Network Setup Tool from your computer.

Things to Check before Starting (Wireless LAN)
Risk of Information Leak
If the printer is connected to an unsecured network, your personal information might be leaked to a third party because radio
waves used in wireless communication can go anywhere nearby, even beyond walls. Use wireless LAN connection at your own
discretion and at your own risk.
Wireless LAN Security Standards
See the "e-Manual" supplied with your printer for information about the security standards supported by the printer.
The printer does not come with a wireless router. Have the router ready as necessary.
The wireless router must conform to the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standards and be able to communicate in the 2.4 GHz band. For
more information, see the instruction manual for your wireless router or contact the manufacturer.
Wired LAN and wireless LAN cannot be used at the same time. When using a wireless LAN connection, do not connect a LAN
cable to the printer. Doing so may cause a malfunction.
If you are using the printer in your office, consult your network administrator.
