network. With Wi-Fi Direct, you can print documents, photos, or e-mail on your mobile

• You cannot connect your mobile device to the Internet via the printer’s Wi-Fi Direct network.

• Depending on the mobile device, the channel used to connect the mobile device to the printer via

Wi-Fi Direct may differ from the channel used by the printer to connect to a network via Wi-Fi

infrastructure mode. In such a case, simultaneous connection with Wi-Fi Direct and Wi-Fi

infrastructure mode may not work properly.

Bonjour (mDNS), SNMPv1/v2c, Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool.

* WSD stands for Web Services on Devices.
