TCP/IP Printing

Printing from Windows NT

®

4.0, 

Windows

®

 2000/XP, LAN Server and 

Warp Server

Overview

Users of Windows NT

®

4.0 can print directly to a network-ready 

Brother machine using the TCP/IP protocol. Microsoft Windows 
NT

®

4.0 users must install Microsoft’s “TCP/IP Printing“ protocol. 

Windows

®

 2000/XP users are able to send print jobs directly to the 

printer without installing any additional software. Brother's print 
server also supports transparent printing from IBM LAN Server and 
OS/2 Warp Server file servers, as well as from OS/2 Warp Connect 
workstations using the TCP/IP protocol. 

Quick Tips:

1

The Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA) protocol 
automatically assigns an IP address from the range: 
169.254.1.0 to 169.254.254.255. If you want to disable the 
APIPA protocol, set APIPA to Off using the machine control 
panel. For more information, see APIPA on page 10-9. If the 
APIPA protocol is disabled, the default IP address of a Brother 
Print/Fax server is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the control 
panel, the BRAdmin Professional utility, Web BRAdmin 
software or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the 
machine.
