Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, the WPS function has a problem that since the WPS function is used in the initial stage of establishing a wireless environment, but in a state where the wireless setting is complete and wireless communication is possible, the WPS function is not additionally used except for reconnection, Therefore, although the cost increases due to the addition of a WPS dedicated button, the practicality of the WPS function is reduced
[0008] Furthermore, in the prior art, except for the case where the wireless environment is not established, if the WPS button is pressed due to user mistake, the currently connected wireless connection is disconnected or becomes unconnectable

Abstract

A method for setting a wireless LAN is provided, which includes receiving a packet, which informs a user that a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button of an access point is operated, from the access point; activating a button provided in an image forming apparatus as a WPS button; selecting a button activated as the WPS button; and if the button activated as the WPS button is selected, constructing a wireless network with the access point.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2010-0081550 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Aug. 23, 2010, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0002] The present invention generally relates to an imaging device and its method for setting up a wireless local area network (LAN), and more particularly relates to an imaging device and its method for setting up a wireless LAN, which can be used in imaging Various types of buttons set in the device are used as WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) buttons. Background technique [0003] The image forming apparatus means an apparatus that prints print data generated in a terminal device such as a computer on printing paper. Examples of such image forming apparatuses include copiers, printers, facsimile machines, multifunction peripherals (MFPs) that multiply the functions of these devices by one device, and the like. [0004] Although an image formi...
