Cannon Printer Setup: Using the operating panel, choose wireless LAN after deciding to connect the device to the computer. It should be noted that you will need to remove and then reinstall the drivers on your computer if you decide to change the configuration from <Wired LAN> to <Wireless LAN> or vice versa. See the applicable driving manuals on the online manual page for additional details.
You can use the machine's display to look through the wireless routers (also known as access points) that are accessible for connection and choose one. Enter a PSK or WEP key as the network key. Check and record the necessary setup data, such as the SSID and network key, before choosing a wireless router. See the "User's Guide" available at canon.com/oip-manual, the Canon website, for further information.
NOTE : Security settingsWhen establishing a wireless connection through the selection of a wireless router, either the WPA/WPA2 encryption technique or the WEP authentication method (AES-CCMP or TKIP) is selected to <Open System>. To choose <Shared Key> for WEP authentication or <AES-CCMP> for WPA/WPA2 encryption, you must use <Enter Manually> to establish the connection. See the "User's Guide" available at canon.com/oip-manual, the Canon website, for further information.
