Internet Printing Installation

Overview

Brother's Brother Internet Print (BIP ) software, for Windows 95/98/Me/NT4.0, allows a PC user at one location, to send a print job to a Brother Printer at a remote location via the Internet. For example, a user on a PC in New York could print a document directly from his Microsoft Excel application program to a printer in Paris.

Windows 2000 users can also use this BIP software, but are recommended to use the IPP protocol support that is part of the Windows 2000 operating systems. Skip to the “Windows 2000 IPP Printing” section of this document.

Quick Tips:

1.The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the print front panel (if applicable), the BRAdmin utility, the printer front panel, or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer.

2.Refer to chapter 12 of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP address on your printer.

3.The default password for Brother print servers is "access".

4.Windows 2000 users can print using TCP/IP using the standard Network Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any Windows 2000 installation.

5.Windows 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via Windows2000 computer providing that the Microsoft Internet Print Services software is installed on the client PC, IIS is installed and running on the server and that the client PC is using version 4 or later of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
