Node Name

You can register the machine name on the Network. This name is often referred to as a NetBIOS name; it will
be the name that is registered by the WINS server on your network. Brother recommends the name
BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx for a wired network or BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx for a wireless network (where xxxxxxxxxxxx is
your machine’s Ethernet address) (up to 15 characters).
