Wireless printing (im series)

[UNICORNico]

Re: Wireless printing (im series)

I bring my own wireless router and put it beside the machine.
Steps i have done...
enabled the wifi features of the machine
user tools>screen features> interface settings>wifi network.

Connect to the WIFI
search the SSID (Homebroadband) and connect
Set the static IP address (192.168.1.5) in advanced options.
Can I ping the IP address? Yes, TTL=64

MY android mobile is also connected to Homebroadband.
Now, I want to print through Ricoh connnector.

Open the app>add machine>add by IP address (192.168.1.5)
SEARCHING FAILED.

Am i doing the right procedure in configuring wireless printing?Is there anything that I have missed?

In my experience, the wifi adapter that incorporates the "IM" (or earlier) models have a very unoptimized and unoptimized configuration.
As one colleague has said before, you'd better book that connection for mobile device use using the APP provided by RICOH.
I usually recommend to all customers, that the device pays more efficiently if it has wired connection, towards the router directly.

ricoh stupid wifi design.....ricoh SOP wifi print and scan only work with direct connect, and it wont print or scan through other wifi connection.

if u want to print throught ricoh connector or older version like ricoh smartprint scan, use wifi extender or AP and connect to machine LAN using cable, just work like wifi copier.
