The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

The printer has WiFi, but you can only connect to a wireless network from the printer menu if it supports WPS. By login and password from the printer menu, no way. It is clear that WPS is disabled for security reasons. And here comes the most interesting moment, how to set it up. When connected via USB, it is also impossible to configure the printer except for the print settings themselves. According to this, the algorithm is something like this. 1. In the printer menu, enable WiFi direct (ID:2600, Pass:2600), which makes the printer work as an access point. 2. We cling to a new network. 3. In the printer menu, we look at its IP, or we start auto-search for the printer and there we already look at what IP it is. 4. Go to the Web interface of the printer (Admin/Admin). 5. Turn on regular WiFi, connect it to a normal access point. 6. Set up other parameters if necessary and turn off WiFi Direct The entire printer is connected to a home or office wireless network. I hope someone will help.

Pros
  • Prints great, but too little time has passed to evaluate in detail
Cons
  • Very inconvenient setup
