BRAdmin Light utility (For Windows

®

 users)

The BRAdmin Light is a utility for initial setup of Brother network connected devices. It can also search for Brother 
products on your network, view the status and configure basic network settings, such as IP address.
For more information on BRAdmin Light, visit us at http://solutions.brother.com.

Note

• If you require more advanced printer management, use the latest Brother BRAdmin Professional utility version 

that is available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com.

• If you are using Personal Firewall software (e.g. Windows Firewall), BRAdmin Light may fail to detect the 

unconfigured device. In that case, disable your Personal Firewall software, try BRAdmin Light again. Re-start 
your Personal Firewall software after the address information is set.
