Introduction Protocols 1 1 TCP/IP protocols and functionalities 1 Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain access to network connected resources. The print server used on this Brother product supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) protocol. TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows®, Macintosh® and Linux. The following TCP/IP protocols are available on this Brother product. Note • You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP (web browser).

TCP/IP protocols and functionalities
1
Protocols are the standardized sets of rules for transmitting data on a network. Protocols allow users to gain
access to network connected resources.
The print server used on this Brother product supports the TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
Protocol) protocol.
TCP/IP is the most popular set of protocols used for communication such as Internet and E-mail. This protocol
can be used in almost all operating systems such as Windows
®
, Macintosh
®
and Linux.
The following TCP/IP protocols are available on this Brother product.
Note
•
You can configure the protocol settings by using the HTTP (web browser). See
How to configure the print
server settings using Web Based Management (web browser)
on page 107.
