You can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to create a direct Wi-Fi connection to a WPS-enabled computer or device.
  1. Slide the cover latch to open the scanner.


  2. Set the connection mode switch on the scanner to the  AP mode position.


  3. Turn on the scanner. Wait for the ready and  Wi-Fi lights on the scanner to stay on.
  4. Press and hold the  Wi-Fi connect button on the scanner for at least 3 seconds, then release it when the ready and  Wi-Fi lights flash alternately.


    The scanner enters standby mode for WPS connection for two minutes.
  5. Press the WPS button on your computer or device, or enable the WPS feature.
    Note: You must press the WPS button or enable the WPS feature within two minutes or the connection attempt will fail.
