CHAPTER TWO

TCP/IP Printing

Printing from Windows NT or

Windows 2000/XP, LAN Server

and Warp Server

Overview

Users of Windows NT can print directly to a network ready Brother printer 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/XP users are able to send

print jobs directly to the printer without installing any additional software.

Brother's print server also supports transparent printing from IBM LAN Server

and OS/2 Warp Server file servers, as well as from OS/2 Warp Connect

workstations using the TCP/IP protocol.

Quick Tips:

1. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change

it, use the printer control panel (if applicable), the BRAdmin application,

or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address.

2. The default password for Brother print 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/XP users can print using TCP/IP using the standard

Network Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any

Windows 2000/XP installation.

5. Windows 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via

a Windows 2000/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/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 server is usually BRN_xxxxxx

(where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print

server).
