Introduction

Overview

The Brother machine can be shared on a 10/100 Mb wired or IEEE 802.11b/802.11g wireless Ethernet 
network using the internal network print server. The print server supports various functions and methods of 
connection depending on the operating system you are running on a network supporting TCP/IP. These 
functions include printing, scanning, PC-FAX send, PC-FAX receive, PhotoCapture

TM

 Center, Remote Setup 

and Status Monitor. The following chart shows what network features and connections are supported by each 
operating system.

To use the Brother machine through a network, you need to configure the print server, and set up the 
computers you use.

For Wireless Users:

To achieve optimum results with normal every day document printing, place the Brother machine as close to 
the network access point (router) as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the 
two devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your 
documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and 
applications. If you are printing large files, such as photos on glossy paper or multi-page documents with 
mixed text and large graphics, you may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer, 
or USB for the fastest throughput speed.
