Press the wireless setup button located at the 
back of the machine for less than 2 seconds as 
show in the illustration below. This will put the 
printer in one-push wireless setting mode. This 
feature will automatically detect which mode 
your access point uses for one-push 
configuration (SecureEasySetup™, 
Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ or AOSS™) of your 
printer.

 

Note

• Use a pointy object such as a ballpoint pen to 

press the button.

• If you press the button for 3 seconds or more, the 

printer will change to the PIN Method of the Wi-Fi 
Protected Setup™ mode.

mode.
The printer searches for an access point that 
supports SecureEasySetup™, 
Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ or AOSS™ for 2 
minutes.

Put your access point in the 
SecureEasySetup™ mode, the Wi-Fi 
Protected Setup™ mode or the AOSS™ mode, 
depending on what is supported by your 
access point. Please refer to the instruction 
manual that came with your access point.

Wait for the 

Ready

 LED (

Go

 button) of your 

printer to indicate connection succeeded. The 

Ready

 LED will turn on for 5 minutes. (See the 

table 

LED indications when using the one-push 

wireless setting mode

 on page 8) This 

indication means the machine has successfully 
connected to your router or access point. You 
can now use your printer on the wireless 
network.

If the LED indicates connection failed (See the 
table 

LED indications when using the one-push 

wireless setting mode

 on page 8), the machine 

has not successfully connected to your router 
or access point. Try starting from

 again. If the 

same message is indicated again, reset the 
machine back to the default factory settings 
and try again. For resetting, see 

Network 

default settings

 on page 46.

If the LED indicates session overlap (See the 
table 

LED indications when using the one-push 

wireless setting mode

 on page 8), the machine 

has detected more than 2 routers or access 
points on your network that have the 
Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or the AOSS™ 
mode enabled. Make sure that only one router 
or access point has the 
Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ mode or the AOSS™ 
mode enabled and try starting from

 again.
