CHAPTER TWO

TCP/IP Printing

Printing from Windows NT or Windows
2000/XP/LAN Server and Warp Server

Overview


Users of Windows NT can print directly to a network ready Brother printer using the
TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft Windows NT 3.5x and NT 4.0 users must install
Microsoft's "TCP/IP printing" protocol. Windows 2000/XP users are able to send
print jobs directly to the printer without installing any additional software. 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 default IP address of print servers is 0.0.0.0.
2. The default password for print servers is "access".
3. Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0 users must install the "Microsoft

TCP/IP printing" protocol (available through the control panel applet)

4. Windows 2000/XP users can print using TCP/IP using the standard Network

Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any Windows
2000/XP installation.

5. Windows 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via a

Windows 2000/XP computer providing that the Microsoft Internet Print
Services software is installed on the client PC, IIS is installed and running
on the Windows 2000/XP computer and that the client PC is using version 4
or later of Microsoft Internet Explorer.

6. The default name for a print server is always BRN_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx

is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print server).
