installing the printer driver in i nfrastructure mode

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your network access
point (router). After the machine is configured to communicate with your access point (router) computers on your
network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install the
MFL-Pro Suite. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.
To achieve optimum results with normal every day document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the
network access point (router) as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two
devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your docu ments.
