Making Wi-Fi Direct Settings When Wi-Fi Is Enabled (Wi-Fi Direct Mode)
Important:
c
Since the printer is disconnected from the Wi-Fi network when it is connected in Wi-Fi Direct mode, you cannot use
the printer over the Wi-Fi network. If you disconnect the connection in Wi-Fi Direct mode, the printer is re-
connected to the previous Wi-Fi network.
The connection method for Wi-Fi Direct mode is much the same as Simple AP mode. Select
> Wi-Fi Direct Setup > Connection Setup on the pritner's control panel, press Proceed, and then start connecting
from the device. The message is displayed on the printer's control panel and the network icon on the home screen
changes to the Wi-Fi Direct mode icon when the printer is connected.
Note:
You can connect in Wi-Fi Direct mode from Android devices only. Before connecting, start Web Config, and then select Basic
Settings > Wi-Fi Direct Setup > Connect to the Wi-Fi Direct devices only to set up the prnter. The method for starting
connection from the printer is the same as for Wi-Fi Direct mode.
If you connect in Wi-Fi Direct mode from specific smart devices, you can only connect using Wi-Fi Direct mode when
connecting to the printer from the smart device, and you do not need to enter the SSID and password because the printer
and the devices communicate each other directly to connect.
