Set Up Wireless (802.1 1) Communication (Some Models Only) - HP OFFICEJET 7500A Guía De Instalación Inicial

3. Set up wireless (802.1 1)
communication (some models
only)
If the printer supports wireless
(802.1 1) communication, you
can connect it wireless to an
existing wireless network.
To connect the printer, complete the
following steps in the order listed.
What is my network name and passkey?
While you are installing the software,
you will be prompted to enter the network
name (also called an "SSID") and a
security passkey:
•
The network name is the name of your
wireless network.
•
The security passkey prevents other
people from connecting to your
wireless network without your
permission. Depending on the level of
security required, your wireless
network might use either a WPA key or
WEP passphrase.
If you have not changed the network
name or the security passkey since
setting up your wireless network, you can
sometimes find them on the back or side
of the wireless router.

Note: Before you set up wireless
communication, make sure the
printer hardware is set up. For more
information, see the setup poster that
came with the printer.
In addition, if you are using a computer
running Windows, HP provides a
web-based tool called the Wireless
Network Assistant that can help retrieve
this information for some systems. To
use this tool, go to www.hp.com/go/
networksetup. (This tool is currently
available in English only.)
If you cannot find the network name or
the security passkey or cannot remember
this information, see the documentation
available with your computer or with the
wireless router. If you still cannot find
this information, contact your network
administrator or the person who set up
the wireless network.
For more information about the network
connections types, the network name, and
the WEP key/WPA Passphrase, see the
user guide.
