TCP/IP

Brother print servers appear to the network as a UNIX host computer 
with a unique IP address running the lpd (line printer daemon) 
protocol. As a result, any host computer that supports the Berkeley 
remote LPR command can spool jobs to Brother print servers without 
the need for any special software on the host computer. For special 
applications, raw TCP ports are also available.

Brother print servers also support the FTP protocol. This protocol can 
be used to send print jobs from Unix systems.

The Brother print server is pre-configured to run on a TCP/IP network 
with a minimum of setup. The only mandatory configuration of the 
print server is the allocation of an IP address, which can be either 
automatically assigned using DHCP, BOOTP etc., or manually 
assigned using the ARP command, BRAdmin or the printer control 
panel (if applicable).

For setting the IP address of the print server, refer to the 
Quick Setup Guide or to chapter 12 of this user guide.
