Reloading the Print
Server Firmware

General

The firmware on the print server is stored in flash memory. This means that you can
upgrade the firmware by downloading the appropriate update file. To get the latest
firmware update, access the Brother Solutions web site at
http://solutions.brother.com/
Some software versions that we provide will automatically factory reset your print
server parameters. We try to avoid doing this, however, if we add a significant new
feature to our print server, it can result in the print server being factory reset.
Because of this, we STRONGLY recommend that you make a note of the current
print server configuration before you upgrade. To do this, Print out a configuration
page (refer to your Quick Setup Guide for information on how to print a
configuration page).
There are three methods of upgrading the firmware in your Brother print server:
1. Use the BRAdmin application (Recommended)
2. Use the FTP protocol (Recommended if running on Macintosh or Unix
network)
3. Use another system (such as a Novell or Unix system to send the new
firmware file to the print server).
