Overview 2
Before using your Brother machine in a network environment, you must install the Brother software and also
configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. In this chapter, you will learn the
basic steps required to print over the network using TCP/IP protocol.
We recommend that you use the Brother installer on the installation CD-ROM to install the Brother software
as this will guide you through the software and network installation. Please follow the instructions in the
supplied Quick Setup Guide.
Note
If you do not wish to, or are unable to use the automatic installer or any of Brother’s software tools, you
can also use the machine’s control panel to change network settings. For more information, see Control
panel setup on page 65.
IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways 2
To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure its IP address and subnet
mask. The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the same logical network as your host
computers. If it is not, you must properly configure the subnet mask and the gateway address.
IP address 2
An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each device connected to a network. An IP address
consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255.
Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number.
192.168.1.1
192.168.1.2
192.168.1.3
How the IP address is assigned to your print server: 2
If you have a DHCP/BOOTP/RARP server in your network (typically a UNIX
®
/Linux
®
, Windows
®
2000/XP,
Windows Vista
®
, Windows
®
7 or Windows Server
®
2003/2008 network) the print server will automatically
obtain its IP address from that server.
Note
On smaller networks, the DHCP server may be the Router.
