Configuring DLC on Other Systems

To use DLC on other network systems, you will generally need 
vendor-supplied software. Typically such software will support the 
Brother print servers. Follow the vendor's instructions to install the 
DLC protocol on your system.

Once the protocol is installed, create a network port in the same way 
that you did for Windows NT

®

4.0 in the previous sections. The MAC 

address (Ethernet address) of the print server should automatically 
appear during the configuration process.

The final step is to create a printer using the normal operating system 
printer setup method. The only difference is that instead of 
connecting the printer to the LPT1 parallel port, you point it to the 
network port you just created.

You can find the node name and MAC address by printing out the 
printer settings page. Refer to the Quick Setup Guide for 
information on how to print the settings page on your print server.
