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, 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.
