Types of network connections and protocols B

Types of network connections B

Wired network connection example B

Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP B

In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no

central server controlling file access or printer sharing.

 In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier

to configure than the Network Shared printing method. See Network Shared printing on page 21.

 Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol.

 The Brother printer needs an appropriate IP address configuration.

 If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother

printer.
