Before Configuring Your Printer for a Wireless Network

Related Models:PJ‑883

Before attempting to configure a wireless network, confirm the following:

  • If you are using an enterprise wireless network, you must know the User ID and Password.

  • To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place your printer as close to the wireless LAN access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices and interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.

    Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications.

  • If there is a signal in the vicinity, wireless LAN allows you to freely make a LAN connection. However, if security settings are not correctly configured, the signal may be intercepted by malicious third parties, possibly resulting in:
    • Theft of personal or confidential information
    • Improper transmission of information to parties impersonating the specified individuals
    • Dissemination of transcribed communication contents that were intercepted

Make sure you know your wireless router/access point's Network Name (SSID) and Network Key (Password). If you cannot find this information, consult the manufacturer of your wireless router/access point, your system administrator, or Internet provider. Brother cannot provide this information.
