Managing your network printer securely using BRAdmin 

Professional (for Windows

®

)

12

To use the BRAdmin Professional utility securely, you need to follow the points below.

„

We strongly recommend to use the latest version of the BRAdmin Professional utility or Web BRAdmin 
that are available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com. If you use an older version of 
BRAdmin

1

 to manage your brother devices the user authentication will not be secure.

„

If you want to prevent access to your printer from older versions of BRAdmin

1

, you need to disable access 

from older versions of BRAdmin

1

 from the 

Advanced Setting

 of 

SNMP

 on 

Configure Protocol

 page by 

using Web Based Management (web browser). See 

How to configure the print server settings using Web 

Based Management (web browser)

 on page 109.

„

Disable the TELNET, FTP and TFTP protocols. Accessing the machine using these protocols is not 
secure. For how to configure the protocol settings, see 

How to configure the print server settings using 

Web Based Management (web browser)

 on page 109.

„

If you are managing a mixed group of older print servers

2

 and the new NC-6600h or NC-7400w print 

server with BRAdmin Professional, we recommend using a different password in each group. This will 
ensure security is maintained on the new NC-6600h or NC-7400w print server.
