[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1914444, member: 396914"] Ok, I tried to find the manual online and if I got the right one, you use the printer panel to find "Network Settings," then "Wireless LAN Settings" and "SSID Settings" to find your network name. Then select the security protocol the AE uses, I think it's WPA2-PSK, and enter the password when it asks for the "token." That should then get the printer connected. The light will flash while the connection is being made, then go solid once it is connected. Then do whatever it takes to find the four-part number, called IP, for that printer to enter in the Mac if you need to do that. The AE itself may be able to show all the devices connected to it, which could be the fastest way to get that IP number, or the printer may have a status page that will print and have the number on the page. You may not need it, but it's better to have it handy. [/QUOTE]
