Macintosh Configuration (Os 8.6 - 9.2) - Brother 2100P - NC Print Server User Manual

Some models may be unable to print the configuration page. In that case, you
can check the printer network configuration using the BRAdmin Professional
utility or by connecting to the embedded web server within the NC-2100p print
server.
6. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it,
use the BRAdmin Professional utility, or let your DHCP server allocate an
IP address to the printer.
Macintosh Configuration (OS 8.6 – 9.2)
Your Brother Printer is compatible with the standard Apple LaserWriter 8 printer
driver (earlier versions of the LaserWriter drivers may crash or cause PostScript
errors on large networks). If you do not have the LaserWriter 8 driver you must
install them. Consult your Macintosh documentation for instructions on how to do
this.
Before you try to use the Brother Print Server, you must firstly enable the EtherTalk
protocol from the Network Control Panel on the Macintosh. If the EtherTalk
protocol is not selected, or the Network Control Panel does not exist, you must use
Apple's Network Installer software to add these capabilities.
The appropriate PPD file supplied with your printer must first be installed. Insert the
supplied CD-ROM into the printer. Select the Start Here icon, select your language
and follow the on screen instructions for Install Software.

The above screenshot is from a Brother HL-5000 series printer driver. However, you
will see a similar screen for all Brother printers that include a Macintosh printer
driver. See the Quick Setup Guide supplied with your printer for instructions on how
to install the Macintosh printer driver.
