B Appendix B B In this section, you will find basic information about advanced network features of the Brother printer along with general networking and common terms. The supported protocols and the network features differ depending on the model you are using. Types of network connections and protocols B Types of network connections B Wired network connection example B Peer-to-Peer printing using TCP/IP B In a Peer-to-Peer environment, each computer directly sends and receives data to each device. There is no central server controlling file access or printer sharing. B 1 Router TCP/IP TCP/IP Network printer (your printer) In a smaller network of 2 or 3 computers, we recommend the Peer-to-Peer printing method as it is easier to configure than the Network Shared printing method. See Network Shared printing uu page 21. Each computer must use the TCP/IP Protocol. The Brother printer needs an appropriate IP address configuration. If you are using a router, the Gateway address must be configured on the computers and the Brother printer. 20
