Hi, 

 

I've had my neighbours print to my printer - probably because they have brought a similar printer and couldn't tell the difference when selecting a printer. I've been looking up how to prevent this from happening. Most suggestions were to turn off Wi-Fi Direct or change the password. 

 

I have found the Wi-Fi Direct and am able to change it from automatic connection to manual, and I can see there are 0/5 devices connected. Is there a way I can set it up so that only mine and my sisters computers can connect and be one of these select devices that can use it?

 

Also is there a way I can set up a new password for the Wi-Fi direct, as I like using it but want to make it more secure.
