The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols 
to communicate with the Brother print server.

If you wish to use the TCP/IP protocol to manage the print server 
make sure that the print server has a valid IP address. There are two 
ways to change the IP address using the BRAdmin Professional 
software:

■

Use the IPX/SPX protocol.

■

Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin find the Brother print 
server as an unconfigured device.

Using BRAdmin and the IPX/SPX 
Protocol to set the IP address

If your PC is using the Novell Netware Client software and is using 
the IPX/SPX protocol, do the following:

1

Select IPX/SPX filter in the left frame of the main window.

2

Check the print server name (the default node name is 

BRN_xxxxxx

, where 

xxxxxx

 is the last six digits of the 

Ethernet address (MAC address)).

If you cannot find your server name, select the Device menu and 
choose Search Active Devices (you can also press the F4 key) and 
try again.

3

Select the print server that you wish to configure and double 
click it. You will be asked for a password. The default password 
is 

access

.

4

Select the TCP/IP tab and set the IP address, Subnet mask 
and Gateway as needed. 

5

In the IP Config box, click the Static radio button. 

You can find the node name and MAC address by printing 
out the printer configuration page. Refer to the Quick Setup 
Guide for information on how to print the configuration page 
on your print server.
