A standard World Wide Web Browser (we recommend Netscape Navigator 
version 4.0 or later/Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later) can be used 
to manage your printer using the HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol). You can 
get the following information from the printer using a web browser. 
 

1.  Printer status information 
2.  Take control of the printer control panel 
3.  Software version information of the printer and print server  
4.  Change network and printer configuration details 

 
You must use the TCP/IP protocol on your network and have a valid IP address 
programmed into the print server and computer.  
 
Quick Tips: 
 

1.  The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change 

it, use the printer control panel, the BRAdmin application, or let your 
DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer. 

2. Refer 

 of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP 

address on your printer. 

3.  The default password for Brother print servers is "access". 
4.  You can use a web browser on most computing platforms, for example, 

Macintosh and Unix users are also cable to connect to the printer and 
manage it. 

5.  You can also use the BRAdmin application to manage the printer and 

network configuration.
