* If using a mobile device, download the **Canon PRINT Inkjet/SELPHY app** (from the App Store or Google Play). ([asktech.support][2])
### **✔ 1.4 Router Compatibility**
* Your router should support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (**WPS**) if you’ll use that connection method.
* Ensure no security features like **MAC filtering** are blocking new devices.
