WPA Printer on WPA2 Network

Dec 20, 2007 3 Replies

Hopefully a simple question.



We want to use a HP 460cb Wireless printer on a small wireless network which has been set up based on WPA2. The printer optopns are open, WEP, WPA-PSK. There is no WPA2 option. The printer uses a Compact Flash Wireless card.



I'm assuming that the lack of a WPA2 choice means it probably doesn't support WPA2.



Any comments? Anybody able to confirm?



(and yes, I cannot get the printer working on this wireless network).



Thanks,



If it doesn't say it, it doesn't support it.

So shift to WPA-PSK for all nodes on your WLAN segment; that's pretty safe if you are smart about the password.
