This software requires the TCP/IP transport protocols to be installed on your Windows 95/98/Me, NT4.0/2000 computer. To install those protocols refer to your Windows documentation.

If you are using the TCP/IP protocol, the proper IP address should be defined on both the Brother print server and your client PC.
