Changing the IP Address using the BRAdmin application Start the BRAdmin application (from Windows 95/98/Me, NT4.0, Windows 2000). The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols to communicate with the Brother print server. As the default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192, the print server will probably be incompatible with the IP address numbering scheme on your network. If you are not using DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you will want to change the IP address. There are two ways that you can do this from within BRAdmin. 1. Use the IPX/SPX protocol 2. Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin find the Brother print server as an un-configured device. 12-2

CHAPTER 12 TCP/IP CONFIGURATION
12-2
Using the printer control panel to
allocate an IP address (printers with
LCD panels only)
Refer to the Quick Setup Guide for details on how to configure IP address
information using the printer control panel. By using the control panel of the
printer, you can program the IP address details at the same time that other printer
parameters are configured.
Changing the IP Address using the
BRAdmin application
Start the BRAdmin application (from Windows 95/98/Me, NT4.0, Windows
2000).
The BRAdmin application can use the IPX/SPX or TCP/IP protocols to
communicate with the Brother print server. As the default IP address of Brother
print servers is 192.0.0.192, the print server will probably be incompatible with
the IP address numbering scheme on your network. If you are not using DHCP,
BOOTP or RARP, you will want to change the IP address. There are two ways
that you can do this from within BRAdmin.
1.
Use the IPX/SPX protocol
2.
Use the TCP/IP protocol and let BRAdmin find the Brother print server
as an un-configured device.
