For most applications, use the Brother print server 'binary' service BINARY_P1. However, if you are printing text files from the DOS or OS/2 command prompt, you should use the text service TEXT_P1, which will add carriage returns for proper formatting of the data (but will potentially distort graphics printouts). The IP name of the OS/2 file server The IP address of the OS/2 file server You may leave the other entries blank. Click on the OK button. The pipe should be highlighted; if not click on it.
