How to use a Web Browser to
manage your Device
Overview
A standard Web Browser (we recommend Netscape Navigator
version 4.0 or later/Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later)
can be used to manage your printer using the HTTP (Hyper Text
Transfer Protocol). You can get the following information from a
printer on your network using a web browser:
1 Printer status information.
2 Take control of the printer’s control panel.
3 Software version information of the printer and print server.
4 Change network and printer configuration details.
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid
IP address programmed into the print server and your computer.
Quick Tips:
1 The default IP address of Brother print servers is
192.0.0.192 . To change it, use the printer’s control panel, the
BRAdmin application, or let your DHCP server allocate an IP
address to the printer.
2 Refer to chapter 12 of this user guide to learn how to configure
the IP address on your printer.
3 The default password for Brother print servers is access .
4 You can use a web browser on most computing platforms, for
example, Macintosh and Unix users are also able to connect to
the printer and manage it.
