2 Configuring your machine for a network 2 Overview 2 2 Before using your Brother machine in a network environment, you must install the Brother software and also configure the appropriate TCP/IP network settings on the machine itself. In this chapter, you will learn the basic steps required to print over the network using TCP/IP protocol. We recommend that you use the Brother installer on the Brother CD-ROM to install the Brother software as this will guide you through the software and network installation. Please follow the instructions in the supplied Quick Setup Guide. Note If you do not wish to, or are unable to use the Brother installer or any of Brother's software tools, you can also use the machine's control panel to change network settings. For more information, see Control panel setup on page 90. IP addresses, subnet masks and gateways 2 To use the machine in a networked TCP/IP environment, you need to configure the IP address and subnet mask. 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 gateway address. IP address 2 An IP address is a series of numbers that identifies each computer connected to a network. An IP address consists of four numbers separated by dots. Each number is between 0 and 255. Example: In a small network, you would normally change the final number. • 192.168.1.1 • 192.168.1.2 • 192.168.1.3 12
