For better guidance let's assume there is a following demand for the network:
There’s no any center of the wireless network (e.g. Wireless Router), and every client is connecting with each other. The client which wants to print a document will communicate directly with the TL-WPS510U. The local network is 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, and the TL-WPS510U is required to set its IP to 192.168.1.10.
Here are the steps to achieve the goal:
Step 1
On the wireless laptop, change the wireless adapter’s IP to 192.168.0.11/255.255.255.0. Since the default IP address of the TL-WPS510U is 192.168.0.10, you need to set the laptop wireless adapter’s IP to the same subnet of the print server.

Step 2
Connect your laptop to the TL-WPS510U. The print server will work on Ad-Hoc mode, with the SSID WLAN-PS in factory default. So please select the wireless network WLAN-PS to connect. If you need to reset the TL-WPS510U but don’t know how to do, please refer to the FAQ
Step 3
Log into the TL-WPS510U and change its IP address to 192.168.1.10/255.255.255.0. The TL-WPS510U will save and reboot after the configuration.
Step 4
On the laptop, change the wireless adapter’s IP to 192.168.1.11/255.255.255.0 and connects to the Ad-Hoc network WLAN-PS again.
Step 5
Log into the TL-WPS510U and configure the wireless parameters according to your wireless network. In my example, the SSID is WLAN-Ad-Hoc, and the security type is WEP-64bit with the password set to 12345. After the configuration, the TL-WPS510U also needs to save and reboot.
Step 6
Connect your laptop to the TL-WPS510U with a new SSID. As I mentioned in step 5, the SSID is WLAN-Ad-Hoc and the password is 12345.
Step 7
Try that you can ping the TL-WPS510U (press WIN key + R, input cmd to launch the command line interface, input ping 192.168.1.10) and you can also log into the TL-WPS510U.
Step 8
Add a Standard TCP/IP port for the printer.
If you’ve already installed the printer on your computer, please refer to this FAQ to add a Standard TCP/IP port.
If you never install a printer on your computer, please refer to this FAQ to add a Standard TCP/IP port.
