   If you select Use a single router, you will need to choose the MAC address of the router / access point you want to connect the printer to. Select it and press the OK button. If you do not know which MAC address to use, press the Back  button, then select Use multiple routers and press the OK button.

   If "Connected" appears, the network does not require a password. Continue from step 8.
