TCP/IP CONFIGURATION 10 - 2
These configuration methods are described in the following paragraphs.
Using the Printer Control Panel to Allocate an IP
Address (Printers with LCD Panels Only)
Refer to the Quick Setup Guide for details on how to configure IP
address information using the printer control panel. By using the
control panel on the printer, you can program the IP address details
at the same time that other printer parameters are configured.
Changing the IP Address Using the BRAdmin
Application
Start the BRAdmin application (from Windows
®
95/98/Me, Windows
NT
®
4.0 and Windows
®
2000/XP).
The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols
to communicate with the Brother print server.
If you wish to use the TCP/IP protocol to manage the print server
make sure that the print server has a valid IP address. There are two
ways to change the IP address using the BRAdmin Professional
utility:
■
Use the IPX/SPX protocol.
■
Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin find the Brother print
server as an unconfigured device.
The IP address you assign to the print server must be on the
same logical network as your host computers. If it is not, you
must properly configure the subnet mask and the router
(gateway).
Please use BRAdmin Professional version 1.59 or later.
