摘要:
A method of performing an image forming operation in an image forming apparatus supporting peer to peer (P2P) connection includes P2P connecting the image forming apparatus to an external wireless device while the image forming apparatus is wirelessly connected to an access point (AP) of an infrastructured network, receiving a discovery packet from the wireless device via a P2P interface, transmitting to the wireless device a response packet including an Internet protocol (IP) address of the P2P interface, receiving from the wireless device an image forming operation performing request having the IP address of the P2P interface as a destination, and performing the requested image forming operation.

Provided is a multi-function printer (MFP) supporting Wi-Fi Direct. The MFP includes a print engine to perform a printing operation, a first wireless interface to connect the MFP to an access point (AP) of an infrastructured network, a second wireless interface to connect the MFP to an external wireless terminal in a Wi-Fi Direct, a soft AP to allow the MFP to perform as an AP when the MFP is Wi-Fi Direct connected, and a dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server unit allocating an internet protocol (IP) address to the wireless device that is Wi-Fi Direct connected to the MFP, where the MFP is simultaneously connected to an AP of the infrastructured network and an external wireless terminal via the first wireless interface and the second wireless interface by using one channel.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for setting up a wireless LAN. The method includes receiving a packet, which informs a user that a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button of an access point is operated, from the access point; activating a button provided in an image forming apparatus as a WPS button; selecting a button activated as the WPS button; and if the button activated as the WPS button is selected, establishing a wireless network with the access point.
摘要:
A network printer and a network printing method of restricting a host from using the network printer. The network printing method includes, if identification information of a host and a print job request signal are received from the host, receiving print data from the host and processing the received print data into a printable signal, determining whether an error exists in a print job during the processing of the print data into the printable signal, if the error exists, automatically registering the identification information of the host in a use restriction list to prevent execution of the print job, and if no error exists in the print job, executing the print job with respect to the print data.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus and a security setting method thereof, the method including: inputting an encryption key of a wireless network connection of the image forming apparatus; displaying a selection screen including one or more functions which the image forming apparatus provides; and selecting at least one of the displayed functions with which to share the encryption key as a password.
