• See below.

  Using WPS to Connect to a Network

  If you have a WPS-enabled wireless router, you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to connect your scanner to the network (ES-300W/ES-300WR). Make sure you have installed your scanner software as described on your scanner Start Here sheet.

  Note: For best results, re-install your scanner software and follow the on-screen instructions to connect to a network.

  1. Set the connection mode switch on the scanner to the  Wi-Fi position.
     
  2. Enable WPS on your router by pressing and holding the WPS button until the security light flashes or by enabling the WPS setting in your router firmware. The router enters WPS discovery mode for 2 minutes.

     Note: If you cannot locate the WPS button, or there are no buttons on the router, see the documentation provided with your router for details.

  3. Turn on the scanner.
  4. Press and hold the  Wi-Fi connect button on the scanner for at least 3 seconds, then release it when the ready and  Wi-Fi lights flash alternately.
     
     

     Note: If you do not complete this step within 2 minutes, repeat steps to try again.

     When the ready and  Wi-Fi lights on the scanner stay on, the scanner is connected to the network.

     Note: If the ! error light turns on, the connection failed. Press the  stop button to clear the error, restart the scanner and router, and repeat these steps.

     Note: If you do not enter the code within 2 minutes, repeat steps 1 through 6.
