Configure the printer’s Wi-Fi settings using a direct Wi-Fi connection between your computer and the printer. This will connect your computer to the printer wirelessly. The Internet connection may be lost while configuring the printer’s Wi-Fi settings.
There are two methods to configure Wi-Fi settings. One uses a direct wireless connection and the other uses a USB cable connection. SPD first runs the direct wireless connection method. The USB cable route works if the printer does not support the WWS function or if the direct WiFi connection method fails
