[QUOTE="Dogbreath, post: 1476433, member: 171258"] Hi All . . . I bought an Epson WK 3540 printer last week. Before the purchase, the folks at Epson told me this printer would set up and run wirelessly using Airport 802.1x. That was one of the selling points. I have tried to set up the printer, but the computer does not acknowledge the printer. Previously I had an HP 8500 printer and the wireless set up went smoothly. I did not have to do anything special. I plugged it in and powered it up and my Mac saw it and life was great. Since the Epson wasn't recognized, I went into System Preferences trying to see if I could set up a network so that I could install this printer. I tried to create and set up a network, but to be honest I had no clue as to what I was doing. I guess I was hoping to get lucky. OK...to the problem...I now have made a mess in my Airport/Networks system. It was asking for passwords and I kept trying different things on different networks. My computer is connected to the Internet by Ethernet cable. It is only one computer and I really don't have a network, router, or any other devices or iSTUFF that need to be configured. So how do I clean up and restore the Network section? I need to get rid of all the stuff I created and get my Mac back to where as if I had never messed with Networks. Can anybody help? Another question is why would the HP set up and install with Airport 802.1x by itself and this Epson won't do it? Where do I find all these passwords it keeps asking for. If it helps, under Airport it shows 0750, ASUS, shelby, and DDW36117B. I hope this makes sense. [/QUOTE]
