I want to use a different Port number other than 631.

13

If you are using Port 631 for IPP printing, you may find that your firewall may not let the print data through. If 
this is the case, use a different port number (port 80), or configure your Firewall to allow Port 631 data 
through.

To send a print job using IPP to a printer using Port 80 (the standard HTTP port) enter the following when 

configuring your Windows

®

 2000/XP, Windows Vista™ and Windows Server

®

2003 system.

http://ip_address/ipp

The Get More Info option in Windows

®

 2000 is not working

13

If you are using a URL of:

http://ip_address:631/ipp,

the 

Get More Info

 option in Windows

®

 2000 will not function. If you wish to use the 

Get More Info

 option, 

use the following URL:

http://ip_address

This will then force Windows

®

 2000/XP, Windows Vista™ and Windows Server

®

2003 to use Port 80 to 

communicate with the Brother print server.

a

If you cannot connect to the print server using your web browser it may be worth checking the Proxy 
Settings of your browser. Look in the Exceptions setting and if necessary, type in the IP address of the 
print server. This will stop your computer from trying to connect to your ISP or proxy server every time 
you wish to look at the printer server.

b

Make sure that you are using the proper web browser, we recommend Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0

®

 

(or higher) or Firefox

®

 1.0 (or higher) for Windows

®

 and Safari™ 1.0 for Macintosh

®

. Please also make 

sure that JavaScript and Cookie are always enabled in whichever browser you use. We recommend you 
upgrade to Safari™ 1.2 or higher to enable JavaScript.
