Wireless Error in My Lexmark 6570

Enhanced by Wi-Fi, the Lexmark 6570 all-in-one printer offers wireless printing with computers that support Wi-Fi connections. However, wireless errors usually occur if the device is unable to connect to the wireless router due to issues with settings, range or problems with the Internet Service Provider. If the Lexmark 6570 printer won't connect to a wireless network, Lexmark provides solutions for wireless errors.

  1. Range

    • Wireless connection range is one of the major causes of wireless errors in Lexmark 6570 printers. If the printer is too far from the wireless access point, you're likely to experience weak signals. Although the printer can stay within 300 feet of the wireless router, Lexmark recommends keeping the device within 100 to 150 feet for optimal performance.

    Interference

    • 2.4GHz devices such as digital cordless phones or microwave ovens create signal interferences that can cause wireless errors in Lexmark 6570 printers. Other problematic devices include baby monitors and security system cameras. If the wireless printer is unable to connect to the wireless network, move problematic devices away from the printer or the computer to improve wireless connections.

    Network

    • You will run into network connection errors if the incorrect network password is entered. In some cases, the wireless access point you're using may be the cause of Lexmark 6570 wireless errors. If the wireless router isn't communicating with the Internet Service Provider, restarting it or pressing the Reset button can restore network connectivity. If the problem persists, open the Network and Internet panel from the Control Panel, and then click "Network and Sharing Center." If you right-click the wireless network, and click "Repair," the computer attempts to solve wireless connection problems. If the problem persists, the issue may be with your ISP, so contact your provider for additional support.

    Tips

    • If the Lexmark 6570 wireless errors persist, run the wireless setup again. This is especially beneficial if the wireless settings have changed. If you changed the WEP or WPA password or other wireless settings, the printer usually runs into wireless connection errors if it's unable to load the new settings. From the All Programs list on the Start menu, click "Lexmark 6500 Series," and then click "Wireless Setup" to start the wireless wizard. Follow the guided instructions to reconfigure the wireless printer.
