Connecting to a Network
When connecting the machine to a wired or wireless local area network (LAN), you need to set an IP address unique to the selected network. Select "wired" or "wireless" depending on your communication environment and networking devices (
). For specific IP address settings, contact your Internet service provider or Network Administrator.
IMPORTANT
If the machine is connected to an unsecured network, your personal information might be leaked to a third party.
NOTE
The machine cannot connect to both wired and wireless LANs at the same time.
The machine does not come with a LAN cable or router. Have them ready as necessary.
For more information about your networking devices, see the instruction manuals for the devices or contact your manufacturer.
Before You Start
Follow these steps to connect the machine to a network.
Check your computer settings.
Make sure that the computer is correctly connected to the network. For more information, see the instruction manuals for the devices you are using, or contact the device manufacturers.
Make sure that the network settings have been completed on the computer. If the network has not been set up properly, you will not be able to use the machine on the network, even if you perform the rest of the procedure below.
NOTE:
Depending on the network, you may need to change settings for the communication method (halfduplex/full-duplex) or the Ethernet type (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) (
Configuring Ethernet Settings ).
For more information, contact your Internet service provider or Network Administrator.
To check the MAC address of the machine, see

Connecting to a Wireless LAN (MF8580Cdw / MF8280Cw Only)
Wireless routers (or access points) connect the machine to a computer via radio waves. If your wireless router is equipped with Wi-Fi
Protected Setup (WPS), configuring your network is automatic and easy. If your networking devices do not support automatic configuration, or if you want to specify authentication and encryption settings in detail, you need to manually set up the connection.
Make sure that your computer is correctly connected to the network.

IMPORTANT
Risk of information leak
Use wireless LAN connection at your own discretion and at your own risk. If the machine is connected to an unsecured network, your personal information might be leaked to a third party because radio waves used in wireless communication can go anywhere nearby, even beyond walls.
Wireless LAN security
The wireless LAN security that is supported by the machine is listed below. For the wireless security compatibility of your wireless router, see the instruction manuals for your networking devices or contact your manufacturer.
128 (104)/64 (40) bit WEP
WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES-CCMP)
WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES-CCMP)
NOTE
Required devices for wireless LAN connection
The machine does not come with a wireless router. Have the router ready as necessary.
The wireless router must conform to IEEE 802.11b/g/n and be able to communicate in 2.4 GHz bandwidth. For more information, see the instruction manuals for your networking devices or contact your manufacturer.
Setting Up Connection Using WPS
When using WPS, two modes are available: push button mode and PIN code mode.
Push Button Mode
Find the WPS mark shown below on the package of your wireless router. Also make sure that there is a WPS button on your networking device.
Setting Up Connection Using WPS Push Button Mode
PIN Code Mode
Some WPS routers do not support the push button mode. If WPS PIN code mode is mentioned on the package or in the instruction manuals of your networking device, set up the connection by entering the PIN code.
