A USBconnection is a direct connection and is the easiest to set up. An Ethernet connection is used to connectto a network. If you are using a network connection, it is important to understand how your computer isconnected to the network.Note: Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Routers, networkhubs, network switches, modems, Ethernet cables, and USB cables are not included with your printer andmust be purchased separately.• USB: If you connect the printer to one computer and do not have a network, use a USB connection.A USB connection offers fast data speeds, but typically not as fast as a network connection.Note: To access the Embedded Web Server, a network connection is required.• Network: If your computer is connected to an office network or home network, use an Ethernetcable to connect the printer to the network. You cannot connect the printer directly to the computer.A connection through a router or network switch is required. An Ethernet network can be used forone or more computers and supports many printers and systems simultaneously. An Ethernetconnection is typically faster than USB and allows you direct access to the settings of the printerusing the Embedded Web Server.• Wireless Network: If your environment includes a wireless router or wireless access point, you canconnect the printer to the network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connectionprovides the same access and services as a wired connection provides. A wireless networkconnection is typically faster than USB and allows direct access to the settings of the printerusing the Embedded Web Server.
