Brother 2100P - NC Print Server User Manual page 14

CHAPTER 1 UNIX PRINTING
TCP/IP
Brother Print Servers appear to the network as a UNIX host computer with a unique
IP address running the lpd, line printer daemon, protocol. As a result, any host
computer that supports the Berkeley remote LPR command can spool jobs to Brother
Print Servers without the need for any special software on the host computer. For
special applications, raw TCP ports are also available.
The Brother print server is pre-configured to run on a TCP/IP network with a
minimum of setup. The only mandatory configuration the print server is the
allocation of an IP address, which can be either automatically assigned using DHCP,
BOOTP etc., or manually assigned using the ARP command, BRAdmin Professional
utility, etc.
For setting the IP address of the print server, refer to chapter 8 of this user guide.
