Brother Network management tools provide a

range of features to make it easier to manage

Brother QL Label Printers. These include:

Monitor Printer Status

• Included with the Brother QL-1060N and QL-580N is our

BRAdmin Network Management Software which allows

you to easily conﬁgure and check the status of your

network-enabled printers.

Error Checking

• Local USB connection – an error message appears

immediately on-screen to identify the error that has

occurred.

• Network connection – The 3 color LED ashes red to

indicate an error has occurred. An error message is

displayed on the task bar of your PC running the Brother

Status Monitor.

BRAdmin Network Management Software

BRAdmin Light (Available on Included CD)

BRAdmin Light is a utility used in the initial set up of

Brother network connected devices. It allows the user to

search for printers, view printer status and conﬁgure basic

network settings. BRAdmin Light provides easy access to

vital information on the Brother QL-1060N or QL-580N.

BRAdmin Professional For Windows

(Available via FREE download from:

http://solutions.brother.com)

BRAdmin Professional offers a more advanced

management of network connected Brother devices.

It includes BRAdmin Light functions as well as allows

the Administrator to access multi-printer settings.

Using BRAdmin Professional the Administrator can

access the following information:

• Device (Status, Speed, Emulation, Memory, Template

and Node Type)

• Printer (Media Status, Media Type, Total Cut Count,

Total Print Length, etc)

• Printer Set Up (Emulation, Power, and Baud Rate)

• Operation Controls (User Reset, Factory Reset, Print

Setting Lists and Cancel Jobs)

• Network conguration settings such as IP Address,

Node Name and Protocol Control

Web BRAdmin

(Available via FREE download from:

http://solutions.brother.com)

Web BRAdmin is the web based utility for advanced

enterprise management of network connected Brother

devices. It has the same functionality as BRAdmin

Professional. (requires IIS server support)

TIP: The Brother QL-1060N and QL-580N use the same

network management interface as our range of MFCs

(all-in-ones) and laser printers, making it easier to

integrate the machine into your current system.

A networked label printer allows multiple users to be

connected and use one machine. All users on the

LAN network – whether they are PC or Mac users –

can access a networked Brother QL Label Printer.

The advantages of this include:

• Single shared printer means low initial purchase cost

to serve multiple users

• Saves space

• Easy to install and manage

• Able to print remotely from another location

• Print different sized labels without having to change

rolls – this is possible if there is a series of label printers

connected to the network and each machine holds a

different roll type
