Filtering to Restrict Communication

Connecting communication devices, including your computer and printer, to a network without appropriate security measures in place allows the risk of unintended and unauthorized access by a third party.

Such risk can be reduced on a printer by setting packet filtering, which works to allow communication only with devices having specific IP addresses or MAC addresses. Set it in Remote UI. See "Starting Remote UI" for access from Remote UI.

Important

• MAC address filtering is enabled only with a wired connection. Cannot be set with a wireless connection.
