Wireless LAN Connection
Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP)
Connection
Use this connection method when you want to
connect the printer directly to a computer or smart
device without using wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) and a
wireless LAN router (access point). In this mode, the
printer acts as an wireless router and you can connect
the devices to the printer without having to use a
standard wireless router. However, devices directly
connected to the printer cannot communicate with
each other through the printer.
The printer can be connected by wireless LAN (Wi-Fi)
and Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP) simultaneously.
However, if you start setting Wi-Fi Direct (Simple AP)
while connected by wireless LAN (Wi-Fi), the wireless
LAN (Wi-Fi) connection is temporarily disconnected.
