A Appendix A Using services A service is a resource that can be accessed by computers that wish to print to the Brother print server. The A Brother print server provides the following predefined services (do a SHOW SERVICE command in the Brother print server remote console to see a list of available services): Enter HELP at the command prompt for a list of supported commands. Service (Example) BINARY_P1 TEXT_P1 POSTSCRIPT_P1 PCL_P1 BRN_xxxxxx_P1_AT Definition TCP/IP binary, NetBIOS service TCP/IP text service (adds carriage return after each line feed) PostScript® service (switches PJL-compatible printer to PostScript® mode) PCL® service (switches PJL-compatible printer to PCL® mode) LPD PostScript® service for Mac OS® 8.6 or later Where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the Ethernet address (for example, BRN_310107_P1). Other ways to set the IP address (for advanced users and administrators) For information on how to configure your network printer using the BRAdmin Professional utility or a web browser, see Setting the IP address and subnet mask on page 2-3. Using DHCP to configure the IP address The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is one of several automated mechanisms for IP address allocation. If you have a DHCP server in your network, the print server will automatically obtain its IP address from DHCP server and register its name with any RFC 1001 and 1002-compliant dynamic name services. Note If you do not want your print server configured via DHCP, BOOTP or RARP, you must set the boot method to static so that the print server has a static IP address. This will prevent the print server from trying to obtain an IP address from any of these systems. To change the boot method, use the printer's control panel NETWORK menu (for HL-5270DN), the BRAdmin Professional utility or a web browser. A - 1
