What Does the Remote Printer Console Do?

The Remote Printer Console (RPC) is a utility program that can run in the DOS environment and comprises the following two programs:

Remote Printer Console Main Program

This program allows you to change various printer settings such as emulation, print quality, fonts, page setup etc., from your computer screen. Since most DOS applications have a Printer Settings menu that overrides the settings made by the RPC, you may not have to use this utility program. This utility program is useful for application software that does not control the printer’s settings and features.

Printer Status Monitor Program

This utility program can monitor your printer’s status using bi-directional parallel communications. This utility program stays resident in your computer memory (Terminate-and-Stay Resident program) and runs in the background.

Installing the Remote Printer Console

Before you install the program, make sure you have the following hardware and software to install the program:

DOS	Version 3.3 or later
Monitor	EGA/VGA or compatible
Option	Mouse; the mouse driver must be installed.
	(You can also operate the program with the keyboard.)

Follow these steps to install the remote printer console program:

1Make sure your MFC is connected to your computer and it is set to Online.

2Start your computer and go to the DOS prompt. If you are in Windows® , exit and return to the DOS prompt.

3Insert the Brother CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive.
