Setting up the printer for wireless communication (HP Officejet Pro K550dtwn) You may set up the printer for wireless communication using one of the following ways:

Using a cross cable or network cable See “To set up the printer for wireless communication” on page 23. Using SecureEasySetup (SES) See “To set up wireless communication using SecureEasySetup (SES)” on page 23. Using Windows Connect Now See “To set up wireless communication for multiple printers (Windows only)” on page 24. Note: If you encounter problems, see “Troubleshooting problems for wireless communication” on page 24.

  • To use the printer with any wireless connection, you must run the installation program at least once from the Starter CD and create a wireless connection.
  • Make sure the printer is not connected to the network using a network cable.
  • The sending device must have built-in 802.11 capabilities or an 802.11 wireless card installed.
  • It is recommended that the printer and the computers that use the printer be on the same subnet. Before installing the printer software, you may wish to find out the settings of your network. Obtain the information from your system administrators, or complete the following tasks: English

Obtain the network name (SSID) and communication mode (infrastructure or ad hoc) from the configuration utility for the network’s wireless access point (WAP) or the computer’s network card. Find out the type of encryption your network uses, such as Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi® Protected Access (WPA). Find out the security password or encryption key of the wireless device. Understanding 802.11 wireless network settings Network name (SSID) By default, the printer looks for the wireless network name or Service Set Identifier (SSID) named “hpsetup”. Your network may have a different SSID. Communication mode There are two communication mode options: Ad hoc: On an ad hoc network, the printer is set to ad hoc communication mode, and communicates directly with other wireless devices without the use of a wireless access point (WAP): All devices on the ad hoc network must:

  • Be 802.11 compatible
  • Have ad hoc as the communication mode
  • Have the same network name (SSID)
  • Be on the same subnet and same channel
  • Have the same 802.11 security settings Infrastructure (recommended): On an infrastructure network, the printer is set to infrastructure communication mode, and communicates with other devices on the network, whether the devices are wired or wireless, through a WAP. WAPs commonly act as routers or gateways on small networks. Security Settings For the available settings for the printer, see the network configuration page under “Understanding the configuration page” in the onscreen user guide. For more information on wireless security, visit www.weca.net/opensection/pdf/ whitepaper_wifi_security4-29-03.pdf.

Network authentication: The printer’s factory default setting is ‘Open‘, which does not require security for authorization or encryption. The other possible values are ‘OpenThenShared’, ‘Shared’, and ‘WPA-PSK’ (Wi-Fi® Protected Access Pre-Shared Key). WPA increases the level of over-the-air data protection and access control on existing and future Wi-Fi networks. It addresses all known weaknesses of WEP, the original native security mechanism in the 802.11 standard.

  • WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security; providing enterprise and consumer Wi-Fi users with a high level of assurance that only authorized users can access their wireless networks. Data encryption:

4. Insert the Starter CD into the CD drive.

If the CD menu does not start automatically, double-click the setup icon on the Starter CD.

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) provides security by encrypting data sent over radio waves from one wireless device to another wireless device. Devices on a WEP-enabled network use WEP keys to encode data. If your network uses WEP, you must know the WEP key(s) it uses. WPA uses the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for encryption and employs 802.1X authentication with one of the standard Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) types available today. WPA2 provides a new, encryption scheme, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is defined in counter cipher-block chaining mode (CCM) and supports the Independent Basic Service Set (IBSS) to enable security between client workstations operating in ad hoc mode.

Troubleshooting problems for wireless communication If the printer is unable to communicate with the network after completing the wireless setup and software installation, perform one or more of the following tasks.

Check the wireless communication settings

Make sure the computer’s wireless card is set to the correct wireless profile. A wireless profile is a set of network settings unique to a given network. A single wireless card might have several wireless profiles (for example, one for a home network and one for an office network). Open the configuration utility for the network card installed on your computer, and ensure that the profile selected is the profile for the printer’s network. Make sure the printer’s network settings match those of your network. Do one of the following to find the settings for your network:

  • Infrastructure communication: Open the wireless access point’s (WAP) configuration utility.
  • Ad hoc communication: Open the configuration utility for the network card installed in your computer. Compare the network’s settings to those that appear on the printer’s configuration page (see “To print a configuration page” on page 21), and note any differences. Possible problems include the following:

The WAP filters hardware addresses (MAC addresses). See “Add hardware addresses to a wireless access point (WAP)” on page 25. One of these settings in the printer might be incorrect: communication mode, network name (SSID), channel (ad hoc networks only), authentication type, encryption. See “Understanding 802.11 wireless network settings” on page 22. Print a document. If the document still does not print, then reset the printer’s network settings (see “Reset network configuration settings” on page 25) and reinstall the printer software (see “Setting up the printer for wireless communication (HP Officejet Pro K550dtwn)” on page 22).
