7510 tries network connect at 64 bit WEP. Needs to be 128. How change the printer?

‎05-16-2012 09:51 PM

New wireless printer 7510 C311a.  Will not connect to existing airport extreme - does not recognize password.  WEP security key in printer is set to 64 bit.  Network uses 128 bit.  Is there a way to change the printer settings to 128?

Here is perhaps a better solution - don't use WEP - it is not in the least secure, your WEP key can be guessed in about 10 minutes with freeware from the Internet.

 

Choose WPA/WPA2 Personal encryption on your Airport, create your own 12+ character passphrase and be a lot more secure and have an easier system to use.
