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

BRAdmin Professional and Web BRAdmin are available as a download from http://solutions.brother.com.
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 (or 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.
