WPS Connection Method
Before we start, there are some conditions that must be met in order to use the WPS push button method:
Canon Pixma TS3122 Wireless Printer Setup, Software & Driver - The Canon Pixma TS3122 Wireless Inkjet All-in-One ($ 79.99) is one of very few inkjet printers with the distinction of a below-$ 80 sale price (and also its street price of $49.99 means that you can in fact buy it for less than $50, making it all the more one-of-a-kind). Not only is this of the least-expensive consumer-grade photo.
- The access point must have a physical WPS push button available.
Please check with your device’s user guide for details.
If the WPS push button is not available please use the instructions in the Standard Connection Method.
- Your network must be using the WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) or WPA2 security protocol. Most WPS enabled access points use this protocol.
Step 1
Make sure that the printer is turned on.
Press & hold the [Wi-Fi] button on the top of the printer until the alarm lamp flashes once.
Step 2
Make sure that the lamp next to this button starts to flash blue and then go to your access point and press the [WPS] button within 2 minutes.
For exact details on starting WPS on your access point, please refer to its user guide.
The (blue) Wi-Fi lamp on the printer will continue flashing while searching, and the power and Wi-Fi lamp will flash when connecting to the access point.
When the printer has successfully made a connection to your wireless network, the power and Wi-Fi lamp will stop flashing and remain lit.
Network settings confirmation
To confirm that your printer is successfully connected to your wireless network, you can print out the network settings of your printer if you wish:
1. Make sure that your printer is turned on.
2. Load a sheet of A4 or letter-sized plain paper.
3. Press & hold the [Resume/Cancel] button until the alarm lamp flashes 15 times, and then release it.
The network information page will be printed.
The network information page will be printed.
When referring to the printout, check that the “Connection” indicates “Active” and that the SSID - Service Set Identifier (the name of your wireless network) indicates the correct name of your wireless network.
This concludes the WPS setup procedure.
Please now proceed by installing the software to make the most out of your PIXMA MG3540.
If you do not have the installation CD that came with your product, please download the manuals and software to continue.
