CHAPTER FIVE

TCP/IP5Printing

Printing from Windows® NT, Windows® 2000 or Windows ® XP LAN Server and Warp Server

Overview

Users of Windows® NT can print directly to a network ready Brother FAX/MFC using the TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft Windows® NT 3.5x and NT 4.0 users must install Microsoft's "TCP/IP printing" protocol. Windows® 2000 and Windows® XP users are able to send print jobs directly to the printer without installing any additional software.

Quick Tips:

1.The default IP address of Brother Print / Fax servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the FAX/MFC’s front panel, the BRAdmin application, or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address.

2.The default password for Brother Print / Fax servers is "access".

3.Windows® NT 3.51 and Windows® NT 4.0 users must install the "Microsoft TCP/IP printing" protocol (available through the control panel applet)

4.Windows® 2000 and Windows® XP users can print using TCP/IP using

the standard Network Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any Windows® 2000 and Windows® XP installation.

5.Windows® 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via a Windows® 2000 or Windows® XP computer providing that the

Microsoft Internet Print Services software is installed on the client PC, IIS is installed and running on the Windows® 2000 or Windows® XP computer and that the client PC is using version 4 or later of Microsoft Internet Explorer.

6.The default name for a Brother Print / Fax server is usually

BRN_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the Print / Fax server).
