The Brother QL-580N/1060N has the following basic network functions.

Network printing

The print server provides printing services for Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista® and

Windows Server® 2003 supporting the TCP/IP protocols and Macintosh supporting TCP/IP (Mac OS® X 10.3.9 or greater).

Management utility

BRAdmin Light

BRAdmin Light is a utility for initial setup of Brother network connected devices. This utility can search for Brother products on your network, view the status and configure basic network settings, such as IP address.

The BRAdmin Light utility is available for Windows® 2000/XP, Windows Vista®, Windows Server® 2003 and

Mac OS® X 10.3.9 or greater computers. For installing BRAdmin Light, see the Setup & Operation Guide we provided with the machine.

BRAdmin Professional (for Windows®)

BRAdmin Professional is a utility for more advanced management of network connected Brother devices. This utility can search for Brother products on your network, view the status and configure the network

settings from a computer running Windows® system. BRAdmin Professional has additional features to BRAdmin Light. For details and to download, visit us at http://solutions.brother.com

Web BRAdmin (For Windows®)

Web BRAdmin is a utility for managing network connected Brother devices. This utility can search for Brother products on your network, view the status and configure the network settings. Unlike BRAdmin Professional,

which is designed for Windows® only, the Web BRAdmin server utility can be accessed from any client PC with a web browser that supports JRE (Java Runtime Environment). By installing the Web BRAdmin server

utility on a PC running IIS 1, administrators with a web browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself.
