Manual configuration
The MarkNet N8050 internal wireless print server is shipped with default settings that let you
configure it in Ad-Hoc mode by accessing the embedded Web page of the print server.
Because this configuration method does not use the Wireless Setup Utility or a direct USB
connection to the computer, several of the wireless settings on both the computer and the network
will need to be accessed. As a result, extensive knowledge of wireless network and computer
settings will be needed to complete the configuration process.
Note: To configure the wireless print server by this method, the computer that is used to
facilitate the configuration process must have a wireless network card.
Before configuring the wireless print server, make sure your printer has been set up correctly
• The internal wireless print server option card has been installed correctly in the printer.
• The toner or print cartridges are installed correctly.
• Paper has been loaded into the printer.
• The printer is turned on and ready to be installed.
For help setting up your printer, see your printer documentation.
