Adding a printer to an existing ad hoc wireless network

Before you begin, make sure:

• Your wireless network adapter is properly attached to your computer and is working.

• The ad hoc wireless network that the printer will connect to is available. For more information on creating an ad hoc wireless network, see the documentation that came with your operating system.

Notes:

• The recommended way to set up your wireless network is to use an access point. This network setup is called infrastructure network.
• If your computer has My WiFi or Wi-Fi Direct, then you can create direct connections to your wireless printer. For more information, see the documentation that came with your computer.
• The printer can communicate on only one wireless network at a time. Configuring the printer for an ad hoc wireless network will remove it from any other wireless network, either ad hoc or infrastructure, for which it is configured.
