WEP Encryption Key

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) Encryption Key is used to secure communication data on the wireless communication. The print server support IEEE 802.11 64 bit WEP key and 128 bit WEP key.

To enable WEP encryption operation, follow setup procedure either Ad-hoc mode or Infrastructure mode, under Wireless

Configuration windows, setup ESS-ID and wireless channel, also type in Encryption Code.

The factory default WEP encryption is disabled (Encryption Code field is blank).

To input Encryption Code, first Click on ASCII or HEX check box to select input format as ASCII format or HEX format.

ASCII input format:

To setup 64 bit WEP key, input 5 ASCII characters, for example,

‘12345’.

To setup 128 bit WEP key, input 13 ASCII characters, for example,

‘1234567890123’.

HEX input format:

To setup 64 bit WEP key, input 10 HEX code, for example,

‘3132333435’, this is the same with ASCII input ‘12345’.

To setup 128 bit WEP key, input 26 HEX code, for example,

‘31323334353637383930313233’, this is the same with ASCII input ‘1234567890123’.

On Confirm WEP Key field, input the same string input on the

Encryption Code field.

Make sure the Encryption Code is the same with the access point’s encryption code that the print server is to be connected under

Infrastructure mode. Your PC/Notebook’s encryption code also needs to be setup the same with the print server’s encryption code under either Infrastructure mode or Ad-hoc mode.

Note:

Carefully input Encryption Code, any error setting will cause communication link to fail. If failure occurs, please reset to factory-reset for the print server and follow the setup procedure

(Ad-hoc or Infrastructure mode) again.
