Changing the Connection from Wi-Fi to USB

Follow the steps below if the Wi-Fi you are using is unstable, or if you want to change to a more stable USB connection.

  1. Connect the printer to a computer using a USB cable.

  2. Select a printer that is not labeled (XXXXX) when printing using a USB connection.

    Your printer name or "Network" is displayed in XXXXX depending on the operating system version.

If the printer is not recognized while it is connected to the computer by a USB cable, a printer administrator may have restricted the external interface connection. Contact your administrator.
