LAN Server / Warp Server Configuration

Brother print servers will work with IBM LAN Server/Warp Server
networks that have IBM TCP/IP V2.0 or later installed on the file server
(TCP/IP is supplied as standard with LAN Server V4.0 and later as well as
Warp Server). Use the following procedure to configure the print server on
an OS/2 LAN Server or Warp Server file server, or on a OS/2 Warp
Connect workstation:

Server Configuration

Make sure that TCP/IP software is installed on your OS/2 file server. If you
have not already done so, open the TCP/IP folder on the desktop, and
double click on the TCP/IP Configuration icon to add the IP address to
the OS/2 file server (consult your system manager for this address).

Programming an IP address for the printer

1. If your printer does not have an LCD panel, at the OS/2 prompt, use the
Substitute the IP address of the Brother Print Server that you wish to use
and replace '00:40:17:00:ed:d6' with the actual Ethernet hardware
address of the Brother Print Server (which can be found on the label affixed
to the bottom of the box or by printing out a configuration page). Note that
you should use colons rather than hyphens to separate the bytes of the
hardware address.
"arp -s" command from the DOS prompt to enter the IP address
into the Brother Print Server as shown in the following example. If your
printer does have an LCD display, use the front panel buttons to
configure the IP address as described in the Quick Setup Guide.
arp -s 192.189.207.77 00:40:17:00:ed:d6 temp
To do this on a printer that has an LCD panel: take the printer off-line
by pressing the SEL button, press and hold down the SHIFT button
then press the UP arrow button until PRINT CONFIG is displayed, press
the SET button. The printer will then print out a configuration sheet, the
sheet labeled "Print Configuration" contains all Print Server
configuration information. Put the printer back on-line again by pressing
the SEL button.
For internal Print Servers that are connected to a Brother printer which
do not have an LCD panel, refer to your printer user guide for
instructions on how to print out a configuration page.
