TCP/IP Printing

Printing from Windows NT

®

4.0,

Windows

®

2000/XP, LAN Server and

Warp Server

Overview

Users of Windows NT

®

4.0 can print directly to a network-ready

Brother machine using the TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft Windows
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. 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 the machine control
panel. For more information, see APIPA on page 10-9. If the
APIPA protocol is disabled, the default IP address of a Brother
Print/Fax server is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the control
panel, the BRAdmin Professional utility, Web BRAdmin
software or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the
machine.
