Introduction

Before you can set up your EPSON Stylus C80WN, you need to decide how you

will use it: either with an access point (in infrastructure mode), or without an access

point (in ad hoc mode, also called ad hoc 802.11b, computer-to-computer, and

peer-to-peer).

Windows System Requirements

For wireless printing with the EPSON Stylus C80WN, make sure each computer

meets the following requirements:

■

A Microsoft

Windows compatible PC or laptop with a Pentium

processor or

later, 200 MHz or faster recommended

■

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT

4.0, Windows 2000,

or Windows XP

■

32MB of RAM (64MB recommended)

■

100MB of free hard disk space (200MB or more recommended)

■

VGA or better display adapter and monitor

■

CD-ROM or DVD drive for installing the printer software

In addition, each computer needs to be connected to an existing wired network that

has a wireless access point, or needs to have a wireless adapter installed.

■

An access point may be combined with a hub or router or may be a separate

unit. For a current list of supported access points, see EPSON’s web site at:

■

Wireless adapters can be installed in a PCMCIA slot on a laptop, a PCI slot in a

desktop computer, or connected through a USB port.

Make sure your wireless adapters(s) work in ad hoc mode if you want to print

without an access point. For a list of supported adapters, see EPSON’s web site at:
