WIRELESS LAN SETUP
SHARP
20
For MX-2640/3140/3640N series, two connection methods are available for Wireless LAN:-
Infrastructure Mode:
Infrastructure mode allows for wireless communication between two client devices via a host (access
point). The MFP connects to an access point to obtain an IP address.
Simultaneous usage of Infrastructure mode and wired connection is prohibited.
Access Point Mode:
Access Point (Ad-Hoc) mode allows for direct wireless communication between two client devices.
Wireless devices acquire an IP address from the MFP directly, allowing Print/Scan features to be available
from mobile devices.
Simultaneous usage of Access Point mode and wired connection is allowed however, mobile devices will
not be able to connect to the intranet/internet when connected to the MFP Wireless LAN.
Wireless LAN Support:
For Wireless LAN specification information, please refer to the Machine Specification section [Wireless
LAN] within this guide.
