Hi, 

The system model you are using does not come with an inbuilt wireless card. However, you can install a wireless card on the computer to make it wireless. If the computer already have a wireless card installed, then please follow the steps below:

  1. Insert the installation software CD which came with the printer.
  2. Make sure the USB cable is connected from the computer to the printer. It will start automatically and will take you to a page, where you need to click on Install, just follow the onscreen      instructions.
  3. Check “I agree to the License Agreement” and then click continue on the next page.
  4. You would see a screen where it will say “Select software to install”, check “Wireless Setup Utility” on Dell V520 Series and click continue.
  5. Select No thanks and click continue
  6. Select "Connection Type",      Choose “Wireless Connection” when prompted to select a connection type,and click continues.
  7. Select Wi-Fi indicator, as seen on the printer and click continue.
  8. Select the wireless network name and enter the passcode.
  9. Your printer should be connected.

In case you do not have the printer disk, click the link below to download the printer drivers:
