Driver Deployment Wizard

This installer includes the Windows® PCL driver and Brother network port driver (LPR and NetBIOS).

If the administrator then installs the printer driver and port driver using this software, he can save the file to the File server or send the file in E-mail to users. Then, each user just clicks that file to have the printer driver, port driver, IP address, and so on, automatically copied to their PC.

For more information, see the Driver Deployment Wizard User’s Guide on the CD-ROM.

TCP/IP Printing

Our Peer to Peer printing software requires the TCP/IP protocol to be installed on your Windows® peer-to-peer computers and an IP Address has to be defined for the Print/Fax server. Refer to your Windows® documentation for more information on how to configure the TCP/IP protocol on your Windows® PC.

If you haven't already done so, configure the IP address of the machine, for more information on IP address configuration, see chapter 11 of this user guide.

Installing the Brother Peer to Peer Software

If you already installed the driver from the printer’s CD-ROM Installer and you selected “Brother Peer-to-Peer Network Printer” during the installation then you do not need to install the Brother Network Print Software again.
