Make sure you have completed the IP address setting of the Brother print server according to Chapter 2 of 
this User’s Guide before installing the network print software or printer driver.
Check the following:

Make sure that the machine is powered on, is on-line and ready to print.

Check to see if there is any LED activity. Brother print servers have two LEDs on the back panel of the 
machine. The upper orange LED shows Speed status. The lower green LED shows Link/Activity 
(Received/Transmit) status.

The upper LED is orange: The Speed LED will be orange if the print server is connected to a 
100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet network.

„

The upper LED is off: The Speed LED will be off if the print server is connected to a 10BASE-T 
Ethernet network.

„

The lower LED is green: The Link/Activity LED will be green if the print server is connected to a 
Ethernet network.
