If any of the following situations exist
•You have replaced your Router or Access Point
•You want to use a different wireless network
•Router settings have been changed.
Please complete the following steps to apply the new configuration settings to your multifunction.*
*The procedure to reconfigure the printer will cause a new instance or listing of the printer in Print & Fax or Print & Scan. To avoid
possible confusion it is recommended to delete the printer listing prior to performing the reconfiguration procedure. Click here for
instructions.
1. To re-establish communication on the network after changing the router / Access Point or when connecting to a different network, the
settings on the Multifunction need to be changed. If you saved a copy of the setup file when you originally installed your printer you can
use it to run the setup. This file, “Mac-mx920-1_0-mcd.dmg” is located in the Downloads folder. Double-click the file, then the setup icon
to start the installation.
If you did not save the file to your computer when the printer was first installed, you can use the Setup CD-ROM to install. You will be
installing the printer the same way as the initial install.
