LAN Server/OS/2 Warp Server Configuration

As Brother print servers support the SMB protocol over TCP/IP via a 
NetBIOS interface, you can easily configure your printer to work with 
an IBM LAN Server and OS/2 Warp Server networks that have IBM 
TCP/IP V2.0 or later installed on the fileserver. Use the following 
procedure to configure the LAN Server, OS/2 Warp Server or OS/2 
Warp connect workstation.

Server Configuration:

1

Open the Templates folder on the OS/2 desktop.

2

Using the right mouse button, drag the Printer template onto the 
desktop.

3

Type in any desired name for the printer from the Create a 
Printer window.

4

Choose an unused port (for example, LPT3) to connect to the 
printer.

5

Choose the appropriate printer driver from the list.

6

Click Create and then OK.

7

If desired, indicate whether you want to share the printer.

Workstation Configuration:

On each workstation that you wish to print from, execute the 
following step:

Go to the DOS or OS/2 command prompt and enter the command:

NET USE LPTx: \\NodeName\ServiceName

Where 

x

 is the LPT port number (1 through 9), 

NodeName

 is the 

NetBIOS Name of the print server  (usually 

BRN_xxxxxx

 by default, 

where 

xxxxxx

 is the last six digits of Ethernet address) and 

ServiceName

 is the service name of the print server (BINARY_P1 

by default).  For example:
