This type of network does not have a central access point. Each wireless client communicates directly with 
each other. When the Brother wireless printer (your printer) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs 
directly from the computer sending the print data.

This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point is connected to 
a non-wireless computer with an Ethernet cable. When your Brother wireless printer is a part of this network, 
it receives all print jobs via the access point.
