LBP6230dw how do I get WiFi light to stop flashing

While I'm happy with my Canon printer, I'm pretty disgusted with Canon's manual and directions and support. I wanted to set up my LBP6230dw by USB only; it will never be using WiFi, but the available driver for my Mac OS seemed only to work with WiFi. If that's not the case, their documentation is misleading. I followed directions to a T but what I saw on my computer didn't match what they said I would see. I did end up with a solid blue light, I suppose indicating a WiFi connection, which was annoying just because the light was unnecessary. I think my computer is sending files to the printer by USB.

Whatever I had working before I had to do a clean reinstall of my Mac system, now the printer is working but it has this annoying bright flashing blue light that presumably means its WiFi connection is broken. I don't care; I will never use that connection, and the printer is still working, but I don't want that annoying flashing blue light. Is there a way to disable WiFi, or at least turn the blue light off?

Canon instructions and manual are shockingly inadequate. I'm afraid that if I try to start from the beginning (uninstall the printer and reinstall it using their instructions) I won't have the working connection that I ended up with originally, through a lot of random trial and error after following the instructions led nowhere.

Hello,

If you are trying to clear any network information from the printer so it no longer tries to connect. You can try resetting the network settings using the reset button found on the back of the printer. It will clear the network settings, and you can continue to use the printer via USB. You can use the steps found in the link HERE. If you have concerns about the network connection or need assist with clearing the network information, I suggest contacting support over the phone at 1-800-652-2666. Our agents would be happy to help.
