CHAPTER 7 APPLETALK (ETHERTALK) TCP/IP PRINTING CHAPTER SEVEN 71 7AppleTalk (EtherTalk) TCP/IP Printing Printing From a Macintosh Overview Brother print server's support the AppleTalk protocol running over Ethernet (also known as EtherTalk). This allows Macintosh users to print at the same time as all other Ethernet network using the AppleTalk (also referred to as EtherTalk) protocol. With the release of System 8.6 or later, Apple introduced a TCP/IP printing capability. This allows Macintosh users to send print jobs using the TCP/IP protocol. Quick Tips: 1. The default name that will appear in the Chooser of a Macintosh will usually be BRN_xxxxxx_P1_AT (where xxxxxx is the last 6 digits of the Ethernet address) 2. From a Macintosh network, the easiest way to change this name is to assign an IP address to the printer and then use a Web browser to change the name. Connect to the printer using a web browser and then click on "Network Configuration" enter the password, then select "Configure AppleTalk", Click "BRN_xxxxxx_P1_AT", then on Service Name, enter the new name that you wish to appear in Chooser. Then click on "Submit". 3. System 8.6 or later supports TCP/IP printing. 4. The default password for Brother print servers is "access". 5. One way to print that details all network settings is to print a configuration page, press the TEST button on the back of the print server. 6. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it, use the printer control panel, the BRAdmin application, or let your DHCP server allocate an IP address to the printer. 7-1
