Your Brother machine can be shared on a 10/100 MB or 1GB (For HL-6180DW(T)) wired, or

IEEE 802.11b/g/n wireless (For wireless models) Ethernet network using the internal network print server. The print server supports various functions and methods of connection depending on the operating system you are running on a network supporting TCP/IP. The following chart shows what network features and connections are supported by each operating system.

Note

Although the Brother machine can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one connection method can be used at a time.
