Note
We recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0
Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh
whichever browser you use. We recommend you upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or greater to enable JavaScript.
If a different web browser is used, make sure it is compatible with HTTP 1.0 and HTTP 1.1.
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address programmed into the print
server and your computer.
To learn how to configure the IP address on your machine, see Configuring your network
printer on page 8.
You can use a web browser on most computing platforms, for example, Macintosh

You can also use the BRAdmin Light and the BRAdmin Professional utilities to manage the printer and its
network configuration.
