TCP/IP Printing
Printing from Windows NT or
Windows 2000/XP, LAN Server

and Warp Server

Overview

Users of Windows NT can print directly to a network ready Brother printer using
the TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft Windows NT 3.5x and NT 4.0 users must install
Microsoft's "TCP/IP printing" protocol. Windows 2000/XP users are able to send
print jobs directly to the printer without installing any additional software.
Brother's print server also supports transparent printing from IBM LAN Server
and OS/2 Warp Server file servers, as well as from OS/2 Warp Connect
workstations using the TCP/IP protocol.
Quick Tips:
1. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change
it, use the printer control panel (if applicable), the BRAdmin application,
or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address.
2. The default password for Brother print servers is "access".
3. Windows NT 3.51 and Windows NT 4.0 users must install the
"Microsoft TCP/IP printing" protocol (available through the control
panel applet).
4. Windows 2000/XP users can print using TCP/IP using the standard
Network Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any
Windows 2000/XP installation.
5. Windows 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via
a Windows 2000/XP computer providing that the Microsoft Internet
Print Services software is installed on the client PC, IIS is installed and
running on the Windows 2000/XP computer and that the client PC is
using version 4 or later of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
6. The default name for a Brother print server is usually BRN_xxxxxx
(where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print
server).
