You can find the node name and MAC address by printing out the printer configuration page. For information on how to print the configuration page on your print server, see Resetting the Print/

Fax Sever back to factory settings (Test Switch) on page 13-4.

8The name you selected in the above step will appear as a checked port in the list of available ports. Click Next.

9Select the correct driver. Click Next.

10Give a name to the printer. If desired, select the printer as the default.

11Select Shared or Not Shared. If shared, specify the share name and the operating systems that will be printing to it.

Configuring DLC on Other Systems

To use DLC on other network systems, you will generally need vendor-supplied software. Typically such software will support the Brother Print/Fax servers. Follow the vendor's instructions to install the DLC protocol on your system.

Once the protocol is installed, create a network port in the same way that you did for Windows NT® 4.0 in the previous sections. The MAC address (Ethernet address) of the Print/Fax server should automatically appear during the configuration process.
