Connected to a wireless capable computer with an access point on the network 
(Infrastructure mode)

This type of network has a central access point at the heart of the network. The access point can also act as 
a bridge or a gateway to a wired network. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this 
network, it receives all print jobs via an access point.

Connected to a wireless capable computer without an access point on the network (Ad-hoc 
mode)

This type of network does not have a central access point. Each wireless client communicates directly with 
each other. When the Brother wireless machine (your machine) is part of this network, it receives all print jobs 
directly from the computer sending the print data.
