Chapter 2
How to Configure TCP/IP printing for Windows
NT, LAN Server and OS/2 Warp Server

Users of Windows NT can print directly to a network ready Brother using the TCP/IP
protocol. Microsoft Windows NT 3.5x and NT 4.0 users must install Microsoft's "TCP/IP
printing" protocol.

Brother’s Print Server also support transparent printing from IBM LAN Server and OS/2
Warp Server file servers, as well as from OS/2 Warp Connect workstations using the TCP/IP
protocol. TCP/IP is included as standard with OS/2 Warp Server and with LAN Server V4.0,
and is optional on LAN Server V3.x systems. It is also included as standard with OS/2 Warp
Connect, and is an optional component of earlier versions of OS/2.

Windows NT(TCP/IP) Configuration

If you have not already done so, install the TCP/IP protocol onto your Windows NT system.
This is done via the Network icon in the Control Panel window of the Windows NT system
(the Control Panel is in the Main window on NT 3.5x systems, or use the Start button on NT
4.0 to access the Settings/Control Panel menu).

NT 3.5x systems:

a

Go into the Control Panel and run the Network applet.

b

Select

Add Software and TCP/IP Protocol and related components.

c

Select

the

TCP/IP Network Printing Support check box. And then click on the

Continue button. (This option will be unavailable if the TCP/IP Network Printing
Support protocol is already installed.


d

Insert the requested disk(s) to copy the required files. Your NT server will need to be re-
booted when the files are copied over.
