(Peer to Peer)
For Windows

2000/XP, LAN Server
and Warp Server users
Overview
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 Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol
automatically assigns an IP address from the range:
169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. If you want to disable the
APIPA protocol, set APIPA to Off using control panel. For more
information, see page 3-9. If the APIPA protocol is disabled, the
default IP address of a Brother Print/Scan server is 192.0.0.192.
To change it, use the machine’s control panel, the BRAdmin
Professional utility software or let your DHCP server allocate an
IP address to the printer.
2 The default password for Brother Print/Scan server is access.
3 Windows ® 2000/XP users can print using TCP/IP with the
standard Network Printing software.
4 The default name for a Brother Print/Scan server is usually
BRN_xxxxxx
(where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the
Ethernet address of the Print/Scan server).
