Internet Printing Installation

Overview


Brother's Brother Internet Print (BIP ) software, for Windows 95/98/Me/NT4.0,
allows a PC user at one location, to send a print job to a Brother Printer at a
remote location via the Internet. For example, a user on a PC in New York could
print a document directly from his Microsoft Excel application program to a
printer in Paris.

Windows 2000/XP users can also use this BIP software, but are recommended to
use the IPP protocol support that is part of the Windows 2000/XP operating
systems. Skip to the “Windows 2000 IPP Printing” section of this document.

Quick Tips:

1. 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.

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. Windows 2000/XP users can print using TCP/IP using the standard

Network Printing software and IPP protocol software built into any
Windows 2000/XP installation.

5. Windows 95/98/Me users can send print jobs using the IPP protocol via

Windows2000 computer providing that the Microsoft Internet Print
Services software is installed on the client PC, IIS is installed and
running on the server and that the client PC is using version 4 or later of
Microsoft Internet Explorer.
