Table 3-1 Factory default wireless settings

Parameter Settings Comments

Communications Mode Ad Hoc If your network uses a wireless router,

access point, or Apple base station,

reconfigure the Communications Mode

of the HP Jetdirect print server to

Infrastructure.

Channel 11 (Ad Hoc mode only) Specifies the

broadcast channel if the print server fails

to connect to a network. In most cases,

you will not need to change this setting.

The print server scans all available

channels for the specified network and

adapts its channel to the one detected.

Network Name (SSID) hpsetup Change the SSID on the print server to

match your network. The SSID is case

sensitive.

Authentication Open System The HP Jetdirect print server is not

configured for network authentication. If

required by your network, the proper

authentication method must be

configured on the HP Jetdirect print

server.

Encryption (WEP) [Disabled] If your network uses WEP encryption

keys, configure the encryption keys on

the print server. You can configure up to

four WEP keys. The active key must

match the value and active key position

(for example, Key 1) configured on other

wireless devices.

Optional wireless connection setup methods

To use Telnet or the HP embedded Web server, first reconfigure your wireless computer to communicate

using the HP Jetdirect factory-default settings, and then create an IP path to the default IP address

(check the HP Jetdirect configuration page for the IP address assigned on the print server). To create

an IP path, use one of the following methods:

●

If supported, use a “route add” command from your system prompt (see your system help or

documentation).

●

Temporarily reconfigure your computer’s IP address to match the default IP network of the

HP Jetdirect print server. For example, if the print server IP address is 169.254.111.111, you could

use 169.254.111.112 for your computer. Before modifying your computer’s settings, you should

record your current settings, or if possible, create a new profile for your temporary settings.
