How do I configure the wireless printer temporarily using a network cable and install the printer driver in Macintosh OS X?
NOTE: For successful wireless setup, you will need to have a network cable for a temporary connection to your wireless router or access point, and you must know your network settings. 4. Press the GO button 10 times. The Status LED will flash while the printer is reset. After the printer is reset the Status LED will be lit.
STEP I: Gather the wireless network settings of your
wireless access point or wireless router The network settings information for your network can be found on the network configuration sheet of your wireless access point or wireless router. Please contact the manufacturer of your wireless access point or wireless router or refer to the users guide for your wireless access point or wireless router for instructions on printing a network configuration sheet. This information includes: A. SSID (Service Set ID or Network Name). Your access point or router is identified by an SSID or network name. Encryption Method required by your access point or router. For example, Open System, Shared Key, WPAPSK, LEAP, etc.
STEP III: Connect the printer via network cable and
configure the wireless network card 1. Connect a network cable to the Ethernet port on the back of the Brother printer (bottom port ONLY) and connect the other end of the cable directly to an available port on the wireless access point, wireless hub, or wireless router. Wait 1 minute. Print out the printer settings pages by pressing the Go button on the printer 3 times. Check the last page. The text to the right of 10/100BASE-TX in the Node Type section will indicate that the wired network card is active or inactive (Figure 1). If this Node Type section shows Inactive, move the network cable to a different port on your wireless access point, wireless hub or wireless router. Wait 1 minute and press GO 3 times, check the last page again to verify it is now Active. Locate the printer IP address (Figure 2). Make sure that the IP address of the printer is in the same range (on the same network) as the IP address of the computer.
C. If you are using WEP, you will need the WEP KEY (in HEX key format). For example, a 64-bit key uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data: i.e. 71f2234aba, while a 128-bit key uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data: i.e. 71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba. D. If you are using WPA-PSK (TKIP), you will need the PASSPHRASE. For routers that use a Pre-Shared Key (PSK), the PASSPHRASE is more than 7 characters and less than 64 characters in length. E. If you are using MAC (Media Access Control) Filtering/MAC Address Access Control on your router, add the printers MAC Address to the table. The MAC Address is available on the Wireless Settings Page. Make sure the Node Type is Brother NC-7600w.

NOTE: If you do not have this network settings information, or cannot find this information, you cannot successfully complete the wireless setup for this printer. Contact the manufacturer of your wireless access point or wireless router for this network information.

STEP II: Perform a factory reset on the printer and printer
network card 1. Check that the front cover of the printer is closed. Turn OFF the power switch on the right side of the printer. Press and hold the GO button, and keep holding it down, as you turn on the power switch. The GO button is located on the top left side of the printer below the LEDs. Keep the GO button pressed down until all the LEDs light up and the Status LED turns off. Release the GO button. Make sure that all the LEDs turn off. To determine the computers IP address:

Mac OS 10.5 a. Select System Preferences from under the blue Apple in the top left corner. b. Select Network.
Mac OS 10.4 a. Select System Preferences from under the blue Apple in the top left corner. c. Click on Advanced. The Airport connection will indicate that it has a self-assigned IP Address. b. Select Network.
c. Click on Configure. The Airport connection will indicate that it is connected to the Computer-toComputer network SETUP. d. Click on the TCP/IP tab. Locate the IP Address. This number should be similar to the IP Address of the printer. The printers IP Address can be found on the Printer Settings pages you printed out previously. The first two sets of numbers should be the same. For example: Computer IP Address is: 205.134.x.x Printer IP Address is: 205.134.x.x

Page 2 of 6

d. Click on the TCP/IP tab. Locate the IP Address line. This number should be similar to the IP Address of the printer. The printers IP Address can be found on the Settings Pages you printed out previously. The first two sets of numbers should be the same. For example: Computer IP Address is: 205.134.x.x Printer IP Address is: 205.134.x.x NOTE: If these numbers are not similar (not in the same range), return to Step II to perform a factory reset on the printer and printer network card. After the network card is reset, wait one minute, and then press the GO button 3 times to print the settings pages. Review the last page for the printer IP address again. If the printer IP address is not similar to the computer IP address, do NOT proceed with wireless setup. Call Brother Customer Service at 1-877-BROTHER (1-877-276-8437) for assistance.

NOTE: If the IP Address is still 0.0.0.0, wait another minute and print out the settings pages again. If the IP Address is still 0.0.0.0, please reset the router by powering it off, then back on. Also, turn the printer off, then back on. Print out the Network Settings page again and verify the settings. If the IP Address is still a 0.0.0.0 number, please verify your security information and go to STEP II. If the IP Address is a 169.254.x.x number and the Wireless Link Status in LINK OK, please check your router for MAC filtering. If MAC filtering is enabled, please enter the MAC address to the list. If MAC filtering is not enable, please reset the router by powering it off, then back on. Also, turn the printer off, then back on. Print out the Network Settings page again and verify the settings. If the IP Address is still a 169.254.x.x number, please verify your security information and go to STEP II. If the IP Address is a 169.254.x.x number and the Wireless Link Status in FAILED TO ASSOCIATE, please reset the router by powering it off, then back on. Also, turn the printer off, then back on. Print out the Network Settings page again and verify the settings. If the IP Address is still a 169.254.x.x number, please verify your security information and go to STEP II.
14. The computer should display a screen indicating the settings have been updated successfully and a reminder to disconnect the network cable from the back of the printer (Figure 12). BE SURE to disconnect the network cable from the printer. NOTE: 2 pages will print out. The second page is the wireless settings page. The Node Type will display the network card as Inactive if the network cable is still connected. Once you disconnect the cable, the Wireless interface will become active. NOTE: The IP Address will be 0.0.0.0. This is expected. Continue with the next step.
