7 Network printing from Windows® basic TCP/IP Peer-to-Peer printing 7 Overview 7 To connect your machine to your network, you need to follow the steps in the Quick Setup Guide. We recommend that you use the Brother installer application on the installation CD-ROM which we have provided with the machine. By using this application, you can easily connect your machine to your network and install the network software and printer driver which you need to complete the configuration of your machine for a network. You will be guided by the on-screen instructions until you are able to use your Brother network printer. If you are a Windows® user and want to configure your machine without using the Brother installer application, use the TCP/IP protocol in a Peer-to-Peer environment. Please follow the instructions in this chapter. This chapter explains how to install the network software and the printer driver which you will need to be able to print using your network printer. Note • You must configure the IP address on your machine before you proceed with this chapter. If you need to 7 configure the IP address, see Setting up the IP address and subnet mask on page 12 first. • Verify the host computer and the machine are either on the same subnet, or that the router is properly configured to pass data between the two devices. • If you are connecting to a Network Print Queue or Share (printing only), see Installation when using a Network Print Queue or Share (printer driver only) on page 104 for installation details. 86
