Node Name

You can register the machine name on the Network. This name is often referred to as a NetBIOS name; it will 
be the name that is registered by the WINS server on your network. Brother recommends the name 
BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx for a wired network

1

 (where xxxxxxxxxxxx is your machine’s Ethernet address) (up to 15 

characters).

For DCP-560CN, the default Node Name is BRN_xxxxxx  (“xxxxxx” is the last six digits of Ethernet address).
