Network Quick Setup Guide

For HL-1850 users: If you are going to connect the printer to your network, purchase the optional Network board (NC-4100h).

If you are going to connect the printer to your network, we recommend that you contact your system administrator prior to installation.

If you are an Administrator: Configure your network printer settings referring to the following instructions.

The default password for the print server is 'access'. You can use the BRAdmin Professional software or a web browser to change this password.

For the Administrator (For Windows® Users Only)
Install the BRAdmin Professional Configuration utility

The BRAdmin Professional software is designed to manage your Brother network connected devices. For example, Brother network ready printers and Brother network ready Multifunction devices can be managed using the BRAdmin Professional software. The BRAdmin Professional software can also be used to manage devices from other manufacturers whose products support the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).

For more information on the BRAdmin Professional utility go to http://solutions.brother.com
