    I believe you can have wired or wireless, but not both.

      most brands don't offer wired/wireless networking in the same machine.. at the same time

      others offer an OPTIONAL wireless card... but have heard they aren't always reliable

            You can do two wired networks, but not wired and wireless simultaneously, especially with manufacturer network cards. =^..^=
            If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
            1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
            2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
            3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
            4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
            5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              The newer Sharps will create their own wireless network. So for example you can hardwire to a customers network as normal. But also the Sharp will publish its own independant wireless network that can be joined and then connect to printer. This is mostly aimed at Guest cell phone printing.

              This wireless network the Sharp creates does not have internet access

                MX-3071 series should be able to enable wifi AND wired at the same time...there is an option to keep it on if i remember correctly.

                Also, 2 wired connections is possible via USB-to-ethernet adapter. This has to be enabled in the Simulations though. (SIM 26-33)

                2nd connetion only supports printing. (no gateway/smtp/...settings available)

                We tested some usb-to-ethernet adapters, and only the TP-link seems to work...

                    Re: MX-2651, MX-3071 etc

                    Under system settings....Network Settings....Use this setting to switch between [Wired Only], [Wired+Wireless (Access Point Mode)] or [Wireless (Infrastructure Mode)]

                    As I understand it .....
                    Wired Only.....is the traditional method, joins machine to customer network via wire, machine has one ip address
                    Wireless (Infrastructure Mode)....same as above but machine is joined to customer network via wireless
                    Wired+Wireless (Access Point Mode).....two ip addresses, machine is connected to customer netowork via wire, while at same time the Sharp will publish its own wireless network in order to enable Guest printing, this wireless is not intented to join another network. It is simply an "Access Point" to the machine to enable guest printing.

                      Yes mansart, but in this models,using an external adapter, usb to lan, you can have a second lan,I'll hope, but only for print, as it says boutn.
                      I will try it this week and tell you if it works.

                        This is from the MX2640n series but I do not think it has changed. This is from Tech bulletin MFP-TB-689, TB also gives instructions on how to set up each mode

                        2.1. Modes in Wireless LAN
                        Two connection methods are available for the wireless LAN
                        Infrastructure mode and Access Point mode.
                        Infrastructure mode, two client devices communicate with each other via an access point. In Access Point mode, two
                        client devices communicate with each other directly without using an access point
                        Mobile devices and MFP
                        communicate with each other directly to print and scan from the MFP.

                        Infrastructure Mode
                        This mode allows for wireless communication between two client devices via a host (access point). A MFP
                        connects to an access point to obtain an IP address.
                        Simultaneous usage of Infrastructure mode and wired connection is prohibited.

                        Access Point Mode
                        MFP connects to other wireless devices without preparation of other access point while the MFP itself functions as
                        the access point. To be more specific, it works by other wireless devices acquiring the IP address from MFP.
                        Print/Scan features in MFP will be available from the mobile devices which have no access to intranet.
                        Simultaneous usage of Access Point mode and wired connection is allowed. However, mobile device will not
                        be able to connect to the intranet/internet which MFP is currently connecting.

                        Good luck.

                          As i was saying...this is the first model that can activate both at the same time.
                          Wired lan + wifi infrastructure
                          Or 2 times wired lan

                          things do change

                            Yeah you need Connection Type: Wired+Wireless (Access Point Mode) in network settings and SP mode 26-50 Wireless Set 1, then it should work, or other way around and it changes automatic to wired+wireless in network settings
