Kodak recommends that you use a wireless access point/router that uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). To determine whether your wireless router supports Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS). Your network name (SSID - Service Set Identifier). You can obtain your SSID from the wireless access point, most commonly a router, using the router s embedded Web server. See the manufacturer s documentation provided with your wireless system for more information. IMPORTANT: The SSID is case sensitive. Your Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) key or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA/WPA2) passphrase. To temporarily disable your firewall until the printer is successfully installed and communicating.
