How to Setup Epson Workforce 520

WIRELESS Internet

1.   Make sure your printer is installed either with the software disk or by doing an internet search for “Epson Workforce 520 software”.

You can easily check this by accessing your “hardware” setting and it should show your Epson Workforce 520 printer.

2.  Turn on your printer.

3.   On the physical printer push the “menu” button

4.   On the physical printer push the “up” OR “down” arrows (which surround the “OK” button) until you get to “Network Setting” (which is # 9 option FYI)

·      For the next step you will need the NAME of your Wi-Fi and/or Internet name AND the password

5.  On the physical printer it will show “Wireless Lan” then “Wireless Lan Setup Wizard”.

6.  On the physical printer you just push “ok” when you find your Wi-Fi and/or Internet Network

7.  On the physical printer you will use the “keypad” (where it shows in large numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and 0 AND on each number button you will see the corresponding alphabet letters. This is where you will press the corresponding button to enter your PASSWORD.

·      Note – your password must be entered CASE sensitive. When you press the corresponding button, on the physical printer, it will show lower case letters first then capitalized letters next.

·      After you have the first number or letter, depending on your password, press the “RIGHT arrow” button so you can enter the second number or letter of your password. ** Take your time and check to make sure your password is entered correctly (it shows on the screen display on the physical printer) in its entirety.

·      After you have entered your password correctly push the “ok” button on the physical printer. ** note – on the display on the physical printer it will show you the status. If you entered the information correctly it will confirm so on the display.

·      8. Once the display, on the physical printer, confirms “success” (i.e. your Wi-Fi and/or Internet Network is now setup/finished) Then press “menu” button on the physical printer

·      9.  CELEBRATE as you are one step away from being done!

·      10. On your computer go to “Devices and Printers” and you will see “Epson 520 Workforce Network”. Right click on this and verify, or click on to activate, this is your default printer.
