3Click on Next in response to the Welcome message.

4Select the Brother Peer to Peer Print (LPR) button.

5Select the desired directory to install the Brother Peer to Peer Print (LPR) files and click on Next. The installation program will create the directory for you if it does not already exist on your disk.

6Enter the Port name that you wish to use and click OK. The default port name is BLP1. Whichever name you choose, it must be unique and it MUST begin with BLP.

7You must now enter the actual IP address of the print server in the IP Address field. If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using Domain Name System, you can also enter the name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS names, you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen in the printer configuration page. By default the NetBIOS name will appear as BRN_xxxxxx where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address.

8Click the OK button. When prompted you must re-boot your computer.
