If you connected the printer to network & install the software, the printer will be discovered in the installation phase. Remember you must use the same network for printer and computer if you install the software.
There may be times when the software will find difficulty in the network. If this thing happens, you need to do an advanced search for the printer using printers assigned IP address. You can find the IP address by wireless network test report or network configuration page.
The printers which have displays, IP address will show on display screen when the wireless icon is pressed.
If this is your first installation of the printer without display and you use USB setup of the wireless method, the software won’t find the printer on network & you will be prompted to create a wireless connection for printer.
Your USB cable will let you connect temporarily between printer and computer. Don’t connect the USB till software instruct you. There must be the same network of computers and printer.
