Dymo LabelWriter Wireless - Connecting the Printer to your Wireless Network

Connecting the Printer to your Wireless Network

Determine the wireless connection method to use to connect the printer to your wireless network. Refer to the documentation that came with your router or access point to determine the connection methods supported.

You can quickly connect the printer to your wireless network in several ways:

• using the Wireless Protected Setup (WPS) button
• using the Quick Setup wizard in the LabelWriter Web Configuration utility installed on the printer

Connecting the Printer using WPS

If your router supports WPS, you can quickly connect the Labelwriter wireless printer to your secure network without entering the network name and password. Refer to the documentation that came with your router to determine if WPS is supported.

To use the WPS button

1. Press the WPS button on the back of the printer. The wireless status light on the side of the printer will glow.
2. Press the WPS button on your router within two minutes. When the printer is successfully connected to your wireless network, the wireless status light is on and no longer glowing.
