Peer to Peer Printing



How to Print in a Windows
95/98/Me Peer to Peer network

Overview


Microsoft's Windows 95/98/Me operating systems features built-in networking
capabilities. These capabilities allow a Windows PC to be configured as a client
workstation in a file server based network environment.

For smaller networks, Windows 95/98/Me also allows the PC to operate in a peer-to-
peer mode. In this mode, the PC can share resources with other PCs on the network
without the need for a central file server.

Quick Tips:

1. The default IP address of Brother print servers is 192.0.0.192. To change it,

use the BRAdmin Professional utility or let your DHCP server allocate an IP
address to the printer.

2.

Refer to chapter 8 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. Brother printers are also compatible with HP JetDirect software, this means

that you can use HP utilities to manage and to print to your Brother printer.
