About Technical Terms In this section, technical terms used in the manual are explained. • Access Point A wireless transceiver or base station that receives information from wireless clients/the machine and rebroadcasts it. Required in an infrastructure network. • Access point mode The machine is used as an access point to connect external wireless communication devices (e.g.
Page 353
• Authentication Method The method that an access point uses to authenticate a printer through a wireless LAN. The methods are agreeable each other. When using WEP as an encryption method, the authentication method is able to fix to Open System or Shared Key.
Page 354
• Firewall It is a system that prevents an unlawful computer access in the network. To prevent, you can use the firewall function of a broadband router, the security software installed in the computer, or operation system for computer. • IEEE 802.11b International standard for wireless LAN using the 2.4 GHz frequency range with a throughput of up to 11 Mbps.
Page 355
◦ Hex Specify a 10-digit or 26-digit string that can contain hexadecimal (0 to 9, A to F, and a to f). • Key Length Length of the WEP key. Select either 64 bits or 128 bits. Longer key length allows you to set a more complex WEP key.
Page 356
• Signal Strength The strength of the signal received by the printer from the access point is indicated with a value from 0 to 100%. • SSID Unique label for wireless LAN. It is often represented such as a network name or an access point name.
Page 357
• WCN (Windows Connect Now) Users running Windows Vista or later can obtain the setting information directly via wireless network (WCN-NET). • WEP/WEP Key An encryption method employed by IEEE 802.11. Shared security key used to encrypt and decrypt data sent over wireless networks. This printer supports key length of 64 bits or 128 bits, key format of ASCII code or Hexadecimal, and key number of 1 to 4.

• WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) WPS is a standard for easy and secure establishment of a wireless network. There are 2 primary methods used in the Wi-Fi Protected Setup: PIN entry: a mandatory method of setup for all WPS certified devices Push button configuration (PBC): an actual push button on the hardware or through a simulated push button in the software.
Restrictions If you use a printer over the wireless LAN, the printer may recognize nearby wireless systems, you should set a network key (WEP or WPA/WPA2) to the access point to encrypt wireless transmission. Wireless communication with a product that does not comply with the Wi-Fi standard cannot be guaranteed. Connecting with too many computers may affect the printer performance, such as printing speed.
