WPA2 support for c6380

I'm thinking in buying a c6380 wireless printer. Does it support the following setup?

 

Auth> WPA2-psk

Encryption>AES

 

In the specs, it doesn't show WPA2 support, only WPA and WEP with AES encryption. I guess it's supported as it is the standard nowadays.

 

Thanks,

Re: WPA2 support for c6380

Yes -- the Photosmart C6380 does support WPA2-PSK w/AES.  In fact, all H-P wireless printers since 2004 have supported WPA2-PSK with both TKIP and AES.

 

If you're buying a new wireless device, look for the Wi-Fi certification logo on the box.  It's a good sign that Wi-Fi device will interoperate with other certified devices.
