CHAPTER 1 UNIX PRINTING CHAPTER ONE 11 1Unix Printing Printing from Unix/Linux using TCP/IP Overview Brother print servers are supplied with the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. Since virtually all UNIX host computers support TCP/IP, this capability allows a printer to be shared on a UNIX Ethernet network. As with all protocols, TCP/IP communications can proceed concurrently whilst other protocols are active, this means that UNIX, NetWare, Apple, and other computers can share the same Brother print server over an Ethernet network. The Linux operating system uses the same setup procedures as standard Berkeley UNIX systems. Refer to this chapter for a typical GUI based Linux installation. Quick Tips: 1. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the printer control panel (if applicable), the BRAdmin application or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer. 2. Refer to chapter 12 of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP address on your printer. 3. The default password for Brother print servers is "access". 4. The default name for a Brother print server is usually BRN_xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print server). 5. When configuring the PRINTCAP file, pay particular attention to the service names, BINARY_P1 and TEXT_P1 1-1

CHAPTER ONE
Unix Printing
Printing from Unix/Linux using
TCP/IP
Overview
Brother print servers are supplied with the Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. Since virtually all UNIX host
computers support TCP/IP, this capability allows a printer to be shared on a
UNIX Ethernet network. As with all protocols, TCP/IP communications can
proceed concurrently whilst other protocols are active, this means that UNIX,
NetWare, Apple, and other computers can share the same Brother print server
over an Ethernet network.
The Linux operating system uses the same setup procedures as standard Berkeley
UNIX systems. Refer to this chapter for a typical GUI based Linux installation.
Quick Tips:
1.
The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change
it, use the printer control panel (if applicable), the BRAdmin application
or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer.
2.
Refer to
chapter 12
of this user guide to learn how to configure the IP
address on your printer.
3.
The default password for Brother print servers is "access".
4.
The default name for a Brother print server is usually BRN_xxxxxx
(where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address of the print
server).
5.
When configuring the PRINTCAP file, pay particular attention to the
service names, BINARY_P1 and TEXT_P1
