Adding a Second Brother LPR Port

You do not need to re-run the install program to add a new Brother 
LPR port. Instead, press the Start button, select Settings, and open 
the Printers window. Click on the icon of the printer that you wish to 
configure, select File from the menu bar, and then choose 
Properties. Click on the Ports tab and push the Add Port button. In 
the Printer Ports dialog, highlight Brother LPR Port. Click the New 
Port button and enter the port name. The default port name is BLP1. 
If you have already used this name, you will get an error message if 
you try to use it again, in which case use BLP2, etc... Once you have 
specified the port name, click the OK button. You will then see the 
Port Settings dialog.

Enter the IP address of the printer that you wish to print to and click 
OK. And then click Close in the Printer Ports dialog. You should 
now see the port that you have just created in the Print to the 
following port(s) setting of the printer driver.
