Let's try to proceed with that the printer wants and connect it to Wi-Fi.

  1. Start Easy Wireless Connect on your printer
  2. Make sure that the printer is turned ON.
  3. Press and hold the Menu/Wireless connect button for 3 seconds.
  4. When the following screen displays, the printer is ready to receive the information needed to connect to the wireless network.

Let me know when you have completed the steps.

  2. Now click and hold Stop Button.
  3. After about two seconds click and hold Power Button.
  4. Keep both buttons pressed together for another two seconds.
  5. Release Stop Button, but keep holding Power Button.
  6. Click Stop Button five times one by one while holding Power Button all the time.
