How to use a Web Browser to
manage your Device

Overview

A standard World Wide Web Browser (we recommend Netscape Navigator version
4.0 or later/Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.0 or later) can be used to manage
your printer using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol). You can get the
following information from the printer using a web browser.
1. Supports several languages including English, French, German, Spanish and
Dutch.
2. Printer status information
3. Software Version information of the printer and network card
4. Change network configuration details
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address
programmed into the print server and computer.
Quick Tips:
1. 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.
2. Refer to chapter 8 of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP address
on your printer.
3. The default password for Brother print servers is "access".
4. You can use a web browser on most computing platforms, for example,
Macintosh and Unix users are also cable to connect to the printer and
manage it.
5. You can also use the BRAdmin Professional utility to manage the printer
and network configuration.
