How to Change the Password on a Dell Wireless 3300 Printer Adapter

The Dell Wireless 3300 printer adapter allows you to use your printer without wires, which is useful if you wish to connect one printer to several machines. Upon setup, you will be prompted for the wireless network name and password. If you wish to change your network's password, you will also have to change the password for the printer adapter to connect properly. This can actually be done through your computer, so you won't even have to touch your printer to change the password.
