The final step is to create a printer using the normal operating system
printer setup method. The only difference is that instead of
connecting the printer to the LPT1 parallel port, you point it to the
network port you just created.

printing.
Brother does not recommend using the DLC protocol with
Windows® for Workgroups 3.11 in a peer-to-peer
configuration if the printer will be heavily used. This is
because jobs may be rejected due to print spooler timeouts.
The best solution in these situations is to set up one PC as a
server for handling network print jobs. All of the other PCs
send their print jobs to the server PC using NetBEUI or TCP/
IP, and the server PC then uses DLC to send the print jobs to
the Brother print server.
