Method 1: Using WiFi Protected Setup (WPS)

The WPS method is one of the most suitable ways to directly connect your printer to WiFi. Here are the steps you can follow to establish the proper connection.

• For the first step, you need to turn on your Epson SureColor P700 printer and prepare it for connection.
• After that, go to your WiFi router and hold the WPS button for a few seconds until the security light starts flashing. (If your router lacks a visible WPS button, then refer to its documentation for guidance.)

• On your printer, keep pressing the WiFi button until the WiFi light starts flashing.

• Wait for a while until the process ends. (Once the connection process is complete, the WiFi light will be on.)

Method 2: WiFi Connection via Epson iPrint App

You can connect your Epson SureColor printer to WiFi using your smartphone. Follow the steps to complete the connection.

• Start by downloading and opening the Epson iPrint app on your smartphone.
• After that, you need to tap on the “Printer is not selected. Tap here to select a printer” option.

• Go to the Local tab and select your printer’s name. (If your printer’s name does not appear on the screen, then ensure that the printer and mobile device are connected to the same network and select Search again. If the printer still does not appear on the screen, then manually connect to it from the Manual IP tab or tap WiFi Direct Setup.)

• In order to manually add your printer to your network, tap on the Manual IP tab.

• Next, select Add, type the IP address for the printer, and tap Done.

• Now, you can use the printer’s functions using the app.
