SETTING UP THE WIRELESS NETWORK USING THE AIR-PCI35X
If both the embedded NIC and the wireless NIC are enabled, the
wireless NIC must
be configured for Ad Hoc (peer-to-peer).
Pressing the
FACTORY DEFAULTS button when both the embedded
and wireless NICs are present will give precedence to the
wireless NIC (the controller will operate on the wireless NIC
only).
The
WIRELESS button on the copier LCD panel and the wireless
settings in TopAccess are only visible when the wireless NIC is
installed.
The following instructions assume that the controller has been
updated with the latest version of the software.

current transfer rate.
