Windows NT/LAN Server (TCP/IP) Troubleshooting


If you are having trouble printing with Windows NT or LAN Server, check the
following:

1. Make sure that TCP/IP and TCP/IP print service are installed and running on

the Windows NT system or the LAN Server file server.

2. If you are using DHCP and you have not created a reservation for the print

server, make sure that you enter the NetBIOS name of the print server in the
"Name or address of server providing lpd" box.


Windows 95/98/Me Peer-to-Peer Print (LPR)
Troubleshooting


If you are having trouble printing on a Windows 95/98/Me Peer-to-Peer network
(LPR method), check the following:

1. Make sure that the Brother LPR Port driver is correctly installed and

configured according to the Windows 95/98/Me Peer-to-Peer chapter.

2. Try to turn the Byte Count on in the “Configure port” of printer driver

properties.


You may find that during the installation of BLP software, the screen that prompts
you for a Port name is not displayed. This may happen on some Windows 95/98/Me
computers. Press the ALT and TAB keys to make it appear.
