NETBIOS PEER TO PEER PRINTING 4 - 1

Brother print server range supports SMB (Server Message Block) 
over the TCP/IP protocol via the NetBIOS interface. This means that 
just like regular Windows

®

 PC's, Brother printers can appear in your 

network neighborhood. The main advantage of NetBIOS printing is 
that you are able to print from legacy DOS applications that are 
running on PC's that are connected to Microsoft networks.

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, see Chapter 3 "Network factory default setting" 
on page 3-11 of the User's Guide. If the APIPA protocol is 
disabled, the default IP address of a Brother print server is 
192.0.0.192. To change it, use the printer control panel (if 
applicable), the BRAdmin Professional, Web BRAdmin software 
or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer.

Refer to chapter 10 of this user guide to learn how to configure 
the IP address on your printer. 

The default password for Brother print servers is 

access

The default domain name of the print server is

change it use your web browser or the BRAdmin application.
