Setting Up the Brother 820 NWB Printer

Connect your printer to Wi-Fi and find its static IP address so you can pair it with a Kiosk. Note: You must use a static IP address. 

Before you start

• Know your Wi-Fi network name and password.
• Make sure the printer will connect to the same Wi-Fi network as your Kiosk.
• Have the printer powered on and within range of your Wi-Fi router. You'll use its wireless network menu, labeled WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) on the printer's screen.

Steps

Connect to Wi-Fi

1. Press the printer's Menu button.
2. Use ▲ and ▼ to select WLAN > WLAN (On/Off) > On, then press OK.
3. Use ▲ and ▼ to select WLAN > Infra Manual Setting, then press OK. The printer searches for available Wi-Fi networks.
4. Use ▲ and ▼ to select your network, then press OK.
5. Enter your Wi-Fi password, then press OK. Tip: Press Menu to switch between uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Use ▲ and ▼ to select each character.
6. When the connection succeeds, "Connected!" appears on the screen. Press OK.
7. Press ↩ to return to the main screen. The Wi-Fi icon appears in the top-right corner, confirming the printer is connected.

Find your IP address

1. Press the Menu button.
2. Use ▲ and ▼ to select WLAN > WLAN Status > Infrastructure Mode, then press OK.
3. Find the IP address next to IP Addr. It's a series of numbers separated by periods — for example, 192.168.1.44.

Result

You now have your printer's static IP address, ready to pair with a Kiosk.

Troubleshooting

Printer won't connect to Wi-Fi
Repeat steps 2–6 in "Connect to Wi-Fi" and confirm you entered the correct password.

Notes

You can also opt to connect your printer using the ethernet port available on the printer; just ensure the printer is still connected to the same network as your kiosk.
